This course will consider a wide range of virtues emphasized in different cultures, and encourage participants to select a few and experiment with their actual practice. For example, the cultivation of patience has always been central to Buddhist training. How do such virtues support both basic and advanced contemplative practice? How do they contribute to having a meaningful life? And what are the obstacles and challenges to such cultivation nowadays? Consideration of these issues will be based both on participants’ personal investigations and traditional perspectives.
​
Dates: Weekly from September 20 through Dec 13, 2023.
Time: Wednesday evenings on Zoom, 7:30 to 8:45 p.m. Pacific Time.
