Modern Buddhism
Information
Teacher : Tom Sharp
Tom has been practising and studying Buddhism for over 10 years. Tom is a sincere and dedicated member of the community and shares his experience of the teachings in a warm and practical way. He is a student on the Foundation Program at KMC and currently the teacher at the La Cala de Mijas branch.
We offer this class also during July and August .
In these classes we will discover the precious treasure of the teachings of the graduated path towards happiness, known in Tibetan as Lamrim. These teachings are presented in the book Modern Buddhism in a very practical way that allows us to apply the ancient wisdom of Buddha in the modern world, without having to change our external situation.
If we cultivate compassion and wisdom and maintain them in our daily activities, we can transform our lives, improve our relationships with others, and see beyond appearances to understand how things really are. We will discover how to solve our problems and achieve deeper inner peace and happiness. This handbook of daily practice is an inexhaustible source of inspiration and offers solutions, from the Buddhist perspective, to all the problems that arise in life.
Classes are open to everyone and each one can be attended and taken advantage of independently. However, attending all of them will allow a broader and fuller view to be obtained, which will open the door to the method that solves all problems.
