Description
Join us on Tuesday evenings for an hour dedicated to finding happiness within.
Each class is self-contained and on a drop-in basis, but attending the whole course may help in gaining a deeper understanding of the practice.
The Six Perfections
What does it mean to be a bodhisattva, a ‘friend of the world’?
This Buddhist term refers to a person who has developed the most loving heart possible, known as ‘the supreme good heart of bodhichitta’ by training in the ‘six perfections’ of giving, moral discipline, patience, joyful effort, concentration and wisdom.
In these classes we explore the six perfections, focusing on practical ways of weaving them into our home and work lives, our relationships and our other activities, such that everything we think, say and do becomes profoundly beneficial to others, and a cause of our own inner peace, healing and happiness.
The classes are offered in-person on Tuesday evenings (6.30pm-7.30pm) at Middle Street Resource Centre, 74 Middle Street, Beeston NG9 2AR.
Cost £6 (free for members).
Booking not essential, payment can be made on arrival (cash or card).
