Introduction to the Four Noble Truths
The Buddha taught for 45 years and The Four Noble Truths are a summary of his teachings. As we study and begin to truly understand them, we will experience increased joy and happiness and reduced suffering and unhappiness. Class will begin with a guided meditation, then an introductory discourse on the Four Noble Truths and, if time allows, take a few questions about the teaching. Wear comfortable clothes, be prepared to remove your shoes (thick socks are encouraged in this cold weather), and come see what the Buddha discovered.
This class is designed for those who are new to Buddhism and are curious to see what its about. No previous experience is required.
