This way Geshe-la makes even the most profound and complex topics accessible to new and experienced students alike. \nBodhisattva Shantideva: A Bodhisattva’s Way of Life\nIn the whole of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition\, there is no single treatise more deeply revered or widely practiced than A Guide to the Bodhisattva Way of Life. Composed in the eighth century by the Indian Bodhisattva Santideva\, it became an instant classic in the curricula of the Buddhist monastic universities of India\, and its renown has grown ever since. Santideva presents methods to harmonize one’s life with the Bodhisattva ideal and inspires the reader to cultivate the perfections of the Bodhisattva: generosity\, ethics\, patience\, zeal\, meditative concentration\, and wisdom. \nHis Holiness the Dalai Lama said: “If I have any understanding of compassion and the Bodhisattva path\, it all comes from studying this text.” \nShantideva composed his text in the form of an inner dialog. He turned his own weapons upon himself\, doing battle with his negative emotions. Therefore\, when we teach or listen to this text\, it is important that we do so in order to progress spiritually\, rather than making it simply a subject of academic study.

They are divided into four categories:\nhow we think (humility\, patience\, contentment and delight)\nhow we act (kindness\, honesty\, generosity and right speech)\nhow we relate to others (respect\, forgiveness\, gratitude and loyalty)\nhow we find meaning (aspiration\, principles\, service and courage).\nThese guidelines provide a framework for personal growth\, encouraging individuals to think\, act\, relate\, and find meaning in ways that foster a harmonious and fulfilling life.\nHow to Join\nThe sessions are offered online:\nTIME: 10.00 – 11.00 am CE(S)T\,\nDATES: Sundays from 19th January – 4th May 2025\nONLINE: Join Zoom here – Passcode: 353076\nThe meditations are freely offered but if you would like to make to support Maitreya Institute\, please make a donation using this link .

Gönpo is an accredited FDCW facilitator and a Buddhist monk based in Australia. He discovered Buddhism as a child through martial arts movies and TV shows\, this was the inspiration for the childhood dream of becoming a wandering kung fu monk. It was a few decades before part of that dream could be realized with many other life adventures distracting him from the spiritual path in his teens and twenties.\nIt wasn’t until he was in his thirties that Gönpo began to really understand the power of Buddhist teachings when he used them to navigate the emotional roller-coaster of life’s many experiences such as a marriage break down and raising children alone. Fortunately\, due the kindness of his teachers and great good karma\, after his children finished school\, Gönpo was able to fulfil the long-held dream of becoming a monk\, albeit without the kung fu. Ending a 20-year career as a high school teacher of languages\, he become a wandering monk spending time studying and meditating in Europe\, India and Nepal before returning to his hometown\, Brisbane\, to take up the role of Spiritual Care Practitioner at Karuna Hospice Services\, giving care and support to people with life limiting illnesses and their families.\nIn his time as a school teacher\, it was the feedback from students around mindfulness practices and life lessons that had the biggest impact on Gönpo\, motivating him to become a 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life facilitator. In his sessions\, Gönpo encourages discussion and deep engagement in the topics\, challenging participants to examine their own ways of thinking. Through understanding how we are now\, we are better equipped to develop the habits that will bring us closer to how we want to be\, interacting with our own minds and the people around us in ways that will make us and the communities we live in\, happier and healthier.\nMore info\nFor more information please visit the Maitreya Institute website URL:https://lotus.fpmt.org/event/sunday-morning-meditations-for-a-more-peaceful-life-organized-by-maitreya-institute-foundation-for-developing-compassion-and-wisdom-35/ CATEGORIES:Buddhism,Secular Ethics ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lotus.fpmt.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Annual-Review-2023-gNPEYE.tmp_.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom (FDCW)":MAILTO:info@compassionandwisdom.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20250909T190000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20250909T200000 DTSTAMP:20260406T105613 CREATED:20250406T082809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250522T141145Z UID:10000595-1757444400-1757448000@lotus.fpmt.org SUMMARY:Be Your Own Therapist DESCRIPTION:These open-ended 60-minute discussions are an easy-going introduction to the Buddhist approach to the mind.

de bols d’eau sont une des neuf pratiques préliminaires (tib. ngöndro) de l’école guélougpa du bouddhisme tibétain.\nEn général\, il faut environ quatre mois à un pratiquant pour accumuler 100 000 offrandes de bols d’eau. Lama Zopa Rinpoché a cependant eu la bonté de nous permettre d’accumuler ces offrandes collectivement lors d’une retraite de groupe. De cette façon\, chacun des participants accumule l’ensemble des 100 000 bols d’eau offerts collectivement pendant la retraite.\nPratiquer ce type d’offrandes nous aide à développer en nous-même la générosité et sert d’antidote à l’avarice. En offrant aux bouddhas\, nous créons une grande quantité de mérites (énergie positive) dont nous avons besoin pour soutenir notre pratique et nos études. Comme les huit autres pratiques préliminaires (prosternations\, Vajrasattva\, refuge\, offrande de mandalas\, yoga du maître\, Dorjé Khadro\, tsa-tsas et Samaya Vajra)\, les offrandes de bols d’eau sont un moyen extraordinaire d’accumuler du mérite et de purifier les négativités afin de générer rapidement en notre esprit les réalisations du chemin.\nL’inscription est indispensable et la retraite stricte.
