Finding Freedom: The Solution to Samsara
10:30am – Noon

Join us every Sunday to explore the fundamentals of Buddhism:

• The Two Truths
• The Four Noble Truths
• The Three Jewels

The Two Truths are the ultimate and conventional nature of the way all phenomena exist. The Four Noble Truths reveal the nature and causes of suffering and the problems we endure, and how we can reverse delusion and attain freedom by realizing emptiness, the ultimate truth. 

Realization of the The Two Truths and The Four Noble Truths destroys our innate misconceptions of how the self and things exist, the root ignorance — samsara — that binds us.

The Three Jewels — the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha — are the embodiment of what we can become. The Buddha, who attained complete enlightenment, and the Sangha, who have realized emptiness, are the valid teachers of the Dharma thus realized. Enlightenment is possible.

The path to enlightenment requires us to observe and work directly with our own mind and learn the skill of meditation. Each Sunday we will start each session with guided meditations and instruction, and then delve more deeply into the topics above.
