Overview
The aim of the Discovering Buddhism is to give participants a solid footing in the practice of Mahayana Buddhism.
The course is an introduction to the teachings of the Lam-rim, or graduated path to enlightenment, a step-by-step blueprint of the realisations a single individual needs to actualise in order to attain full enlightenment in one lifetime.
By engaging in this programme, participants will gain an experiential taste of the Buddha’s teachings, some retreat experience, and the skills they need to make their lives most meaningful.
Also, by the end of this programme, participants should have a solid foundation from which to make informed choices about their continued spiritual development.
You can start the programme at any time – and participants don’t have to start at Lesson 1.
