Lecture: "The Six Liberating Actions"

Lecture: "The Six Liberating Actions"
Sunday 6 October at 4pm

"If you think about yourself you have problems. If you think about others you have interesting tasks and challenges." - Lama Ole Nydahl

In Diamond Way Buddhism we understand that the path to finding our own power and wisdom starts with helping others find theirs. More precisely, this path is the Bodhisattva approach to Buddhism, and the six liberating actions (or six paramitas) are the quintessential methods to help others while also bringing long-term benefit to our own mind.

The six liberating actions, also known as the six paramitas, prescribe actions - combined with Buddhist wisdom - that will efficiently bring us closer to enlightened states of mind. These actions form the liberating basis for the highly exciting and expedient path of Diamond Way Buddhism.

Please join us to find out more, ask any questions that you have, and take part in a guided meditation.

Our program is suitable for beginners and there is plenty of time for individual questions.

Lots of free parking; meditation cushions and mats are provided. The regular program is free of charge.
