Sobre el curso
This course is part of a five-course-series that provides a thorough exploration of the Hinayana path drawing on teachings from prominent teachers and classic sources. The emphasis is on cultivating maitri or friendliness to oneself, and on the Shambhala teachings of basic goodness, gentleness and bravery - allowing us to meet the modern human condition with warriorship and dignity.
The Four Noble Truths are used as the overall organizing principle. Instructions in the Four Foundations of Mindfulness are interwoven and provide a meditative method for embracing the totality of our basically good experience—including pain and suffering.
Curso III - Las enseñanzas fundamentales de Buda indican que el sufrimiento que experimentamos en nuestras vidas puede cesar si reconocemos, profunda y profundamente, como ha surgido ese sufrimiento. Esto requiere valentía suave y contemplación profunda., bypassing simplistic notions of how our suffering has arisen.
