Why me? That’s the question we often ask when we find ourselves immersed in problems. But do we have an actual answer to that question? Or do we just feel unlucky? Or that we’ve been dealt an unfair hand?
Buddha’s teachings on the law of karma give us a clear and practical explanation of why things happen the way they do. They teach us how we can begin to change our experiences from not-so-great to fantastic. Or at the very least, better. Rather than seeking happiness, we learn to create it. Rather than running from unhappiness, we learn to abandon its causes. Understanding karma puts us in the driver’s seat of our own life.
In this Friday night lecture, Gen Namdrol will guide us to an understanding on how by using the law of karma we can change our experience of the present, heal the past, and create a more fortunate future.
Everyone is welcome! No experience is needed.
