Bokcirkel – Bryt vanans makt

studiekurser

Nu drar vi igång vår första bokcirkel!

UPPDATERING!

På kort varsel fylldes vårens första bokcirkel på föreningen där vi ska läsa ”Bryt vanans makt : vinn inre frihet” av Pema Chödrön. Vi kommer starta fler bokcirklar så håll utkik! Det är kul att läsa tillsammans!
Pema Chödrön finns på Youtube där hon ger praktiska och innerliga råd om hur man kan möta sorg och smärta och annat obehag med ett öppet hjärta. För allas skull!
Vi kommer att träffas online varannan söndag, ojämna veckor, med början den 7 mars.
Tid kl.18.00.
Första gången blir ett kort “uppstartsmöte” där vi gemensamt diskuterar hur vi vill lägga upp cirkeln. Det innebär att man inte måste ha läst något tills dess alltså.
Max antal deltagare är sju stycken.
Anmälan och för att få zoomlänk till denna bokcirkel fås genom att maila till  asa@tibetanskbuddhism.se
Boken som vi valt är:

Bryt vanans makt – vinn inre frihet av  Pema Chödrön

160 sidor, ca pris 89 – 169 kr
Om boken:
“Bryt vanans makt ger oss en vägledning när inre krav och gamla vanemönster sätter krokben för oss. Pema Chödrön visar insiktsfullt hur vi får syn på dessa inre hinder – de som får oss att gå i baklås eller fastna i oönskade känslo- och tankespår, och hur vi kan hantera dem. Budskapet visar på att hindren kan lösas upp och att vi vinner en inre frihet som öppnar nya möjligheter i livet.“

En lättläst och mycket inspirerande bok!

 Välkommen med din anmälan!

Fira Chötrul Düchen 27 feb

arkiv

På lördag 27/2 firas Chötrul Düchen, en av de fyra största högtiderna inom buddhismen, och det finns flera möjligheter att delta i detta online.

 
På förmiddagen firas det via zoom tillsammans med Vördade Khenpo Tashi Sangpo Amipa och de andra europeiska centren.
Och på eftermiddagen ger H.H. Sakya Trichen “Oral transmission of the Samantabhadra Prayer.”
 
Khenpo Tashi Sangpo Amipa
(Resident lama in Stockholm)
 

Lördag 27 /2 kl.10-11.30

 
Kort introduktion till Chötrul Düchen och recitation av “Sutran till minne av de Tre Juvelerna” och ”Bekännelser inför de 35 Buddhorna”.
 
De första 15 dagarna av det tibetanska nyåret är den tid då Buddha Shakyamuni utförde mirakel för att öka sina lärjungars förtjänst och hängivenhet.
Det är mycket speciella dagar då effekterna av våra handlingar (dygdiga och icke-dygdiga) multipliceras kraftigt. Därför är detta en mycket gynnsam tid att ägna oss åt alla typer av Dharma-aktiviteter, såsom Dharmastudier, övningar och böner.

ABOUT THE SERIES

We will cover and complete one volume at a time. So far four volumes have been published, with more awaiting. Stephan Pende will teach two weekends a year. In between visits he will offer online group meetings with meditations and lectures.

ABOUT THE BOOKS

“His Holiness the Dalai Lama https://www.dalailama.com/ has been publicly teaching Buddhism for decades. The Library of Wisdom and Compassion collects his presentations of every step of the path to enlightenment, compiled and coauthored by one of his chief Western disciples, the American nun Thubten Chodron https://thubtenchodron.org/

The Buddha wanted his students to investigate, to see for themselves whether what he said were true. As a student of the Buddha, the Dalai Lama promotes the same spirit of investigation, and as the rich tradition of the Buddha makes its way into new lands and cultures, His Holiness has recognized that new approaches are needed to allow seekers in the West to experience the relevance of the liberating message in their own lives. Such an approach cannot assume listeners are free from doubt and already have faith in Buddhism’s basic tenets. The Library of Wisdom and Compassion series, therefore, starts from the universal human wish for happiness and presents the dynamic nature of the mind. This first volume also provides a wealth of reflections on Buddhist history and fundamentals, contemporary issues, and the Dalai Lama’s own personal experiences. It stands alone as an introduction to Buddhism, but it also provides a foundation for the systematic illumination of the path in the volumes to come.”

Path of Meditation

lärarbesök_kurser

Kurs i meditation

med Venerable Sungrab Woeser,
Sakya-munk från Nederländerna

Kursen ges online och pågår mellan januari och mars 2021

View permeates meditation. Meditation permeates view.
‘Path’ means graduated steps towards a destination. In buddhism the path is aimed at liberation from causes of pain and suffering and at abiding in peace of mind.
Meditation is a translation of the Pali word bhavana, meaning development, transference. It changes the fluctuations of disturbing feelings and thoughts into equanimity. This is the common purpose of meditation: to subdue the mind.
The spiritual path of meditation is to enhance one’s motivation for the benefit of all beings, to the end of space. It is the aim for limitless love, compassion and liberation.
There are diverse types of meditation, fitting inner and outer situations in our life. Meditation will lead to desired change when the right kind of meditation is used for the right purpose. The same is true when techniques are applied correctly and precisely.
The Path of meditation is the assimilation of spiritual aims and correct methods.
Buddha’s views are the warmth of luminosity and of most excellent happiness. They create wholeness and completion. His wisdom guides all beings towards liberation: from ego into selflessness, from dependence into independence, from unprotected into protected, from bondage into liberation.
In this course, we shall study Buddha’s words of wisdom, explore step by step different types of meditation and train in several meditation techniques.
