In words that are warm and clear\, the Dalai Lama shows his own personal path toward understanding: key ideas for reflection and essential phrases from Buddhist masters that hit him like a lightning bolt with the force of their meaning. \n\n\n\nThough it’s not obvious\, our minds are constantly constructing our realities. Rather than the neutral observers we take ourselves to be\, our minds assess objects with the view of how they might make us happy or how they could cause us pain. As a result\, we flit through the round of suffering as we open ourselves up to intense craving\, hatred\, and a multitude of other counterproductive emotions. This way of looking casts our worldview in an illusion that things exist inherently rather than as they truly do\, in interdependence. \n\n\n\nShantideva Center welcomes meditation teacher Stephan Pende as he leads an in-depth guided reading of this book–which is actually a tightly focused and clear program for meditation. The full series of 24 classes encompasses twelve weekends over the course of the year\, from January to December. Let this course by Stephan Pende serve as a framework for your personal meditation practice to this most beneficial aim: seeing yourself as you really are. \n\n\n\nSchedule:Sat and Sun\, 10:30am–12pm EST/EDT URL:https://www.stephanpende.com/event/how-to-see-yourself-as-you-really-are-2/ CATEGORIES:Online ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.stephanpende.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/sublimes-nuages-et-rayons-de-soleil.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Shantideva Center NY":MAILTO:registration@shantidevanyc.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20231128T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20231128T210000 DTSTAMP:20260430T063516 CREATED:20230914T092314Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230926T185824Z UID:1429-1701198000-1701205200@www.stephanpende.com SUMMARY:Beyond Mindfulness Drop-in Meditation DESCRIPTION:I have been undergoing a transformational period and searching to deepen my practice.

Unfortunately\, I must cancel this retreat. However\, this transitional process will enrich future teachings. \n\n\n\nJoin our long-awaited weekend retreat with Stephan Pende\, online or in person (Stockholm)! \n\n\n\nOn this weekend retreat\, we will explore the death process\, how to prepare for our death and how to support others on their journey. \n\n\n\nIt is difficult to accept the inevitability of our own deaths or the deaths of our loved ones. And although avoiding death is not possible\, it is possible to prepare for death and equip ourselves with tools to help those around us engage with their own deaths in the most beneficial way. \n\n\n\nHis Holiness the Dalai Lama says in ”Book of joy”: \n\n\n\n”The true measure of spiritual development is how one confronts one’s own mortality. The best way is when one is able to approach death with joy; next best way is without fear; third best way is at least not to have regrets.” \n\n\n\nStephan Pende will help us uncover our fears and ideas about death and impermanence and through teachings\, discussions\, and guided meditations we will explore how to live the life to die well. \n\n\n\nTEACHER \n\n\n\nStephan Pende is originally from Germany\, he has MA in clinical psychology and trained in Gestalt therapy. Stephan has studied and practiced meditation in multiple Buddhist traditions for over 30 years and has spent all together five years in meditation retreats. He was a monk in the Tibetan tradition for 11 years\, and teaches meditation in Buddhist centers in Europe. \n\n\n\nPRACTICAL INFORMATION AND HOW TO REGISTER \n\n\n\nLanguage: EnglishLocation: In person or online via Zoom.

Ken McLeod zeigt in seinen inspirierenden Erläuterungen\, dass es um einen Weg zu innerer Klarheit\, Mitgefühl und angemessenem Handeln geht\, der von zeitloser Aktualität ist. \n\n\n\nEr bringt uns mit einer Dimension menschlicher Freiheit in Berührung\, die daraus erwächst\, dass wir die Freuden\, Sorgen und den Schmerz des Lebens in aller Tiefe zu erfahren vermögen\, ohne von ihnen überwältigt zu werden oder sie zu unterdrücken. Das versetzt uns in die Lage\, Leiden zu verwandeln\, Glück zu schenken und die Würde unseres Menschseins in jeder Situation auszudrücken. \n\n\n\nZoom:https://us06web.zoom.us/j/94307434913?pwd=ZnByWVRhUVpDdVJ1akp0aWdBLzZwQT09Meeting-ID: 943 0743 4913Kenncode: 740740 \n\n\n\nSpende für die Belehrung \n\n\n\nDie Spenden für die Lehrperson sind gemäss dem Dana Prinzip: Du gibst was dir die Belehrung wert ist. \n\n\n\nDer Geldbetrag kann in die Spendenbox neben der Türe gelegt\, oder mit dem neben der Spendenbox befindlichen TWINT QR-Code direkt überwiesen werden. \n\n\n\nSpenden können auch über den Spendenlink auf der Website getätigt werden. \n\n\n\nBei Verwendungszweck bitte den Namen der Lehrperson angeben.
