SARATOGA SPRINGS: Tuesdays 7 - 8:30pm

Practical Steps to Build a Better World

October 14 - November 4

Step into a new world. It's time to put down old, ordinary ways of thinking. We often have a feeling “something isn’t working”. It's common to resort to the same old patterns that got us into trouble in the first place. Through studying the classic Buddhist meditation text Eight Verses of Training the Mind, we will see novel ways to break through mental inertia and creatively respond to the problems of life.

Practiced for thousands of years, these beloved meditative techniques are radical ways to shift our thinking and help us contribute to a better life and better world. We will leave this series ready to fearlessly deal with whatever life throws at us and understand how to make gradual, incremental improvement. 

Weekly Topics

October 14: How to love an imperfect world
