Choose Compassion and Let Go of Fear
We may be experiencing ever-increasing fears and anxieties in these difficult modern times, and struggling to deal with them. It is said that compassion is a supreme inner wealth that is an inexhaustible source of benefit for us in both this and future lives. Compassion purifies our mind, gives us tremendous energy to help others, and creates a deep inner peace in our hearts that cannot be disturbed by changing conditions. Choosing to enhance our compassion for the suffering of others, can actually protect us from fear, empower us to become courageous in the face of adversity, and bring true meaning and joy to our lives. Join Gen Namdrol as she explains how that is possible.
Join Gen Namdrol for this monthly class that includes an inspiring talk, guided meditations, and time for questions and answers. Everyone is welcome!
