SUMMARY:Precepts
DESCRIPTION:The essence of the practice is to take eight precepts and to keep them purely for a period of twenty-four hours. \nBy doing this practice again and again\, we acquaint ourself with the practice of moral discipline and thereby make our human life meaningful. \nWe receive many great benefits from practicing moral discipline in this way. It helps us to solve the problems of this life by avoiding the causes of suffering; and it creates the cause for us to take fortunate rebirths in future lives and thereby protects us from the sufferings of lower rebirth. \nIn particular\, because it is performed with bodhichitta motivation\, this practice is very powerful for purifying negative karma. It accumulates a vast collection of merit and creates the cause for us to attain the unsurpassed happiness of enlightenment. \nWe first need to receive these precepts from a qualified Preceptor\, and then we can take them on our own as often as we wish. Instructions on both these methods are included in this sadhana. \nIf we wish to take the essence of this precious human life we should strive to engage in this practice as often as we can. \nAn explanation of the practice \nWhen we take the eight Mahayana precepts\, we explicitly promise to abstain for twenty-four hours from eight actions: \n\nKilling\nStealing\nSexual activity\nLying\nTaking intoxicants\nEating after lunch\nSitting on high or luxurious thrones or seats\nWearing ornaments\, perfume\, etc\, and singing and dancing\, etc.\n\nThese eight\, however\, are merely symbolic\, for in reality we promise to abstain from all non-virtuous actions for twenty-four hours. \nTaking and keeping these precepts is a special purification practice. Buddha realized that all living beings’ suffering comes from their previous negative karma\, and so he taught special practices to purify it. \nTo purify our negative karma we must practice the four opponent powers: the power of regret\, the power of reliance\, the power of the opponent force\, and the power of promise. These are explained fully in Joyful Path of Good Fortune. Within these four\, we are here emphasizing the power of promise – promising not to repeat non-virtuous actions. \nThere are many levels on which we can make this promise. We can promise not to commit non-virtuous actions for the rest of our life\, for a year\, for a month\, for a week\, or\, in this case\, for a day. \nIf we manage to keep our actions of body\, speech\, and mind pure for one day we can then extend it to two days\, then to three days\, and so on\, until eventually we can keep pure moral discipline all the time. \nIf we reach the point when we can keep our actions of body\, speech\, and mind completely pure all the time\, we shall have accomplished the Pure Land. With a pure body and a pure mind there is no basis for experiencing suffering; instead we shall experience only unceasing happiness from within. \nWe all want to be happy – living in a pure environment with pure friends\, pure enjoyments\, and so on – but this is unattainable for as long as we have negative karma in our minds. \nTherefore\, we need to rely upon Buddha’s skilful method for purifying our negative karma. This practice is very simple\, and it lasts for only a day at a time; but it leads to very great results.

SUMMARY:Transforming Pain into Peace with Buddhist Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Saturday Workshop\nAt Northlife Aesthetics and Wellness \nTransforming Pain into Peace with Buddhist Meditation\nSat Sep 26| 10am - 1pm \nWith Kadampa Buddhist Teacher\, Kadam Trina Gunther\nIn the midst of problems\, conflicts and adversities\, how can we maintain a balanced and positive mind? \nBuddha taught a special method that enables us to use all our difficult circumstances and painful experiences for profound mental growth\, called “transforming adverse conditions into the path.” \nTransforming adverse condition into the path is vital in these degenerate times because we are constantly surrounded by difficulties. There is no way of avoiding difficult situations\, but if we can change our attitude toward them\, they will no longer be problems for us. \nIn this workshop\, Kadam Trina will introduce this method on how to transform our mind from unhappy and anxious to peaceful and positive with whatever circumstances arise in our life. There will be guided meditations and opportunties for Q and A. \nSchedule\n10:00-11:15am\nRefreshment break\n11:45am-1:00pm \nEveryone is welcome! No meditation experience is required. Save the date
