Life Is Like a Dream
A Meditation Series at KMC Texas
Sundays from 11:00 am - 12:15 pm
In-Person or Online for Streaming Pass Members
Feel free to drop in at any point in the series. Everyone is welcome!
All objects—whether pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral—are mere appearances to the mind, just like things experienced in a dream.
When we are awake many different things exist, but when we fall asleep they cease. This is because the mind to which they appear ceases. When we dream, the only things that appear are dream objects. Later, when we wake up, these dream objects cease. This is because the dreaming mind to which they appear ceases.
If we think deeply about this, we will understand how we can cause all the unpleasant things that we dislike to cease simply by abandoning impure, deluded states of mind; and we can cause all the pleasant things that we desire to arise simply by developing a pure mind.
Join us in December for a series where we dive into Buddhist teachings about the nature of reality and how that can affect our understanding our daily life, our death, and our rebirth.
What to expect:
- Classes are approximately 1-1/4 hours long.
- Classes include two guided meditations and a talk on Buddhism for everyday living.
- Occasionally Q&A is offered at the end of the class.
- Although part of a series, each class is self-contained so you can check out any single class or jump into the series midstream.
