The Buddha taught that the awakened heart—free from greed, anger and ignorance—will naturally manifest in loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity. Known as the Brahma Viharas or “divine abodes,” these are qualities we can cultivate in our meditation practice and daily life.
The course features talks about the Buddha’s core teachings on the Brahma Viharas and periods of meditation practice and discussion, all with an emphasis on application to daily life. Essential and background readings and study questions will be provided. The course will benefit both newer and more experienced practitioners.
Sliding Scale Fee: Sponsor $150, Mid $125, Base $100. Drop-in $20 per class. Scholarships are available.
