Lojong: Where Wisdom and Compassion Meet

Online: Hosted by Pema Osel

Lojong, the Buddhist practice of mind training, gives us the tools we need to journey through our constantly changing lives and meet unexpected and unwanted experiences with confidence and clarity. The training begins with getting to know ourselves and finding solidarity and friendship with our own mind. Gradually the practice frees us from the negative habits that prevent us from realizing our full potential to benefit others. There has never been a better time to enhance our compassion for the world with the wisdom of lojong.
