SUMMARY:What is Meditation ? with Gen Kelsang Mila
DESCRIPTION: \nIn this series we will learn what Buddhist meditation is and how to develop and maintain a peaceful mind. \n \n“We want to be happy all the time, even during sleep. How can we do this? We can do this through training in meditation because meditation makes our mind peaceful, and when our mind is peaceful we are happy all the time, even if our external conditions are poor. On the other hand, when our mind is not peaceful we are not happy, even if our external conditions are excellent. We can understand this through our own experience” Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.  \n \nEveryone is welcome.  Each class is self-contained, so you can join at any time and still benefit. \n \nAbout the Teacher\nAs a student of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso ( https://kadampa.org/the-founder ), Gen Kelsang Mila is a modern – day Kadampa Nun and the resident teacher of Vajrapani Kadampa Buddhist Centre.
