Meditation Workshop: The Path of Good Fortune (Lompoc)
March 17, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
$20This class is in Lompoc, CA.
Meditation has become widely popular in the past few years because of the proven health and wellness benefits for people who meditate regularly. But Buddha taught meditation, not merely as a temporary solution for anxiety or even for increased mindfulness of a fleeting “present moment” — but to completely transform the inner landscape of our mind by cultivating special attitudes that make our mind peaceful.
In this half-day workshop we will explore Buddha’s teachings on improving our minds of giving, the actual cause of wealth and abundant resources. Without basic necessities, our minds are consumed with worries that make it impossible to make progress on spiritual paths. For this reason, Buddha explained how the cause of wealth is generosity towards others. In these two sessions we will identify how to begin an authentic Buddhist meditation practice by using methods that deepen our familiarity with the peace that arises from holding special minds of generosity for longer and longer periods of time.
This workshop will be taught by the Resident Teacher of Mahakankala Buddhist Center, Keli Vaughan.
Cost of this event is $20 per person or Bring A Friend for $30. Free for monthly members of MBC.
