To many of us, a spiritual path is our way of trying to figure out the meaning of life, a way to reach a deeper understanding of oneself amid all the chaos and pain that life has brought on to us.

  • Is it about the searching for the light within?
  • Is there a universal principle that can help us see the same goodness in all of us despite our differences?
  • What guidance can we have to help us deal with social ills and injustices?
  • What actions can we take to turn this life a useful and beneficial one?
  • How do we free ourselves from distracting thoughts and destructive actions?
  • Can a life with peace and happiness be attainable and sustainable?

There will be a Q&A session at the end of Khenpo’s presentation.  We invite you to join us and be part of this conversation.  Share with us your observation or insight.  This event is free and open to all.  No registration is necessary.  Donations to support TRTCC’s cultural and educational events are heartily appreciated as always.

 

ALL ARE WELCOME
