Public Talk : Finding Happiness From a Different Source

With special guest Teacher, Gen Demo

Friday February 4, 6:30–7:45pm

We tend to look for happiness outside ourself, thinking that if we arrange everything perfectly we would be truly happy.

We could change our home or our partner countless times, but until we change our restless, discontented mind we will never find real happiness. It is time we sought happiness from a different source. Happiness is a part of the mind, so the real source of happiness must lie within us.

Join us for this public talk with special guest Teacher and Buddhist nun, Gen Demo, on finding a true source of happiness within our own peaceful mind through the practice of Buddhist meditation.This talk is also an introduction to the Saturday Course: The Three Principal Aspects of the Path based on the extraordinary Buddhist poem written by the Buddhist Master Je Tsongkhapa

Gen Kelsang Demo is the Midwestern US National Spiritual Director and the Resident Teacher at Kadampa Meditation Center Washington DC. She has been a student and disciple of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche for many years and is deeply respected as a teacher and practitioner. She demonstrates a wealth of practical knowledge and provides clear and inspiring teachings for people of all levels of interest. We are so delighted to have her with us for this event.
