Jersey City Buddhist Meditation Class
What is True Love? How to Be of Greatest Benefit to Ourselves and Others
$10 per class, free for supporting members
This class is offered in-person only
Many of us may spend our life seeking love outside ourselves and pinning our source of happiness on the people who surround us. The result? Relationships that are burdened with the opposite: unhappiness, dissatisfaction, conflict. According to Buddha this is because we often confuse desirous attachment – an unpeaceful, deluded mind – for love. In this series, we will learn how to recognize and reduce our desirous attachment and to replace it with an authentic, true love that produces true happiness. We will train in creating love, rather than trying to find love. This training will allow us to be of greatest benefit to both ourselves and others.
