Composure is recognized as an important resource in Buddhism, and is probably all the more important in present-day circumstances. The course will explore the meaning and cultivation of composure, based on a range of Buddhist teachings. Emphasis will be placed on practice experiments in ordinary life. No background in Buddhism is required, but class discussions will cover various levels of understanding. Reading suggestions will be provided, and sharing of ideas for additional readings will be encouraged.

Also available via live streaming (webcast) from Berkeley Monastery
Lecturer: Rev. Heng Sure (or DRBA monks and nuns)

Every Saturday night, the Berkeley Monastery community gathers to listen to a lecture on the Flower Adornment Sutra.  We investigate the sutra text line by line and endeavor to bring its ancient wisdom up to date for our modern lives in the 21st century.
