TUSHITA MEDITATION CENTRE, INDIA
OVERVIEW
Wisdom and compassion are equally essential in the pursuit of genuine happiness. The practice of lojong or “mind training” enables us to fully develop both of these qualities, to awaken our mind and to open our heart.
Using Geshe Chekawa's classic text, Seven-Point Mind Training, this course presents methods for cultivating both wisdom (ultimate bodhicitta) and compassion (conventional bodhicitta). In addition, this course also focuses on how to transform problems into opportunities for spiritual awakening and how to integrate all the various practices into our daily life with extensive practical advice.
