Theme Sunday with Ven. Amy: Overcoming Obstacles with Green Tara

Green Tara Practice and the Path to Awakening

with Ven. Amy Miller

The "Lam Rim" or "Stages of the Path" is a practical step-by-step exposition in which an ordinary person can engage to transform their consciousness into that of a fully awakened being. This Theme Sunday will guide participants in these steps, providing an overview of how to meditate on each topic in a way that not only fulfills our spiritual aspirations, yet improves the quality of our daily lives. A meditation practice of Green Tara will also be included. Tara is one of the most widely venerated deities in Tibetan Buddhism and is the embodiment of enlightened energy. In doing this practice, inner and outer obstacles can be eliminated to help us develop our minds and accumulate the positive conditions needed to attain enlightenment.  

Our Theme Sundays are community days, in which we share the pleasure of each other’s company, food, meditation, lecture and discussion. We invite everyone to bring some vegetarian food to share with others over lunch.

Date and times: October 22, 10.00 - 14.30 hrs. CEST (lunch break 12.00 - 13.00 hrs.).

Both onsite and online.

Suggested donation to help cover our costs: € 30. Students / people with low income € 20 per day. The donation amount should never be an obstacle to your access to the Dharma! Please write us an e-mail if you'd like to donate a reduced amount.
