Introduction to Buddhism

A Life of Limitless Possibilities

All the Mahayana practices of Sutra and Tantra are included within the six perfections. 

Buddha therefore taught that the six perfections are the actual path to enlightenment. The six perfections are the perfection of giving, moral discipline, patience, effort, mental stabilization and wisdom motivated by the wish of renunciation, a wish to permanently protect yourself from suffering. 

In this series, Buddhist Nun, Gen Kelsang Mila, will be teaching on Wisdom, the 6th Perfection. In particular we will learn about the true nature of reality, emptiness. 

 “There is no greater method for experiencing peace of mind and happiness than to understand and meditate on emptiness” – Modern Buddhism,  Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. 

Through developing patience and applying these practical teachings, you can integrate these perfections into your daily life and thereby begin to unlock your limitless potential.

The book Modern Buddhism is available as a free ebook and will be used as a reference for this series.

We would love you to see you.

Simply Meditate

Meditation is Essential for Human Happiness.

So, we need to practice meditation. The reason is very simple, meditation makes our mind peaceful and when our mind is peaceful, we are happy all the time whatever circumstances we find ourselves in.
