SUMMARY:Chanted Prayers: Prajnaparamita – THE GREAT MOTHER
DESCRIPTION:Great Mother Prajnaparamita is a female Buddha who is the manifestation of Buddha’s perfection of wisdom – wisdom motivated by the supremely compassionate good heart of bodhichitta.\n \nAlthough we all wish to be happy, again and again we find our attainment of happiness frustrated obstacles or hindrances – both external and internal. When our mind is filled with negative thoughts and delusions, such as attachment, anger and ignorance, we experience great harm and suffering. \n \nThey prevent us from maintaining a peaceful mind, and also destroy whatever happiness we may have gained. This booklet contains a special method for averting and overcoming hindrances in general and the ‘mara’ or ‘demon’ of delusions in particular that involves the recitation and contemplation of the Essence of Wisdom Sutra, or Heart Sutra, which can be performed either for one’s own sake or for the benefit of others.twenty-one manifestations of Tara. Because these are Sutra, the actual words of Buddha, they are particularly powerful and blessed.\n \n\n \nEveryone Welcome !\n \nHow to join in ?\n In Person at Vajrapani Kadampa Buddhist Center\nThe Woods, 345 Jan Smuts Ave, Upper level, Craighall Park, 2196\nPlease arrive a few minutes before the event starts to register and settle in.  We have a book shop to browse, water on sale.There is secure and ample parking. \n \nPlease email epc@meditation.org.za for more info.\n \nBecome a monthly member ?
