Our Curriculum
We practice Mahayana Buddhism in the Gelugpa lineage, which trains followers with methods to acquire the compassion, wisdom and skills to be of true help. To achieve this goal, we study and practice "Lam Rim," a series of sequential topics to be understood, contemplated, and finally actualized. The Lam Rim topics are: Lam Rim: Initial Stage • Our Precious Human Life • Death and Impermanence • Refuge in the Three Jewels • Karma: Actions and Effects Lam Rim: Medium Stage • The Four Noble Truths • General Suffering of Samsara • The Specific Sufferings of Samsara • 12 Links of Dependent Origination Lam Rim: Highest Stage • Developing Equanimity • Seeing All Beings as One's Mother • Recalling The Kindness of Mothers • The Kindness of All Others • Equalizing Self and Other • Exchanging Self and Other • Tonglen: Taking and Giving • Great Compassion & Bodhichitta • Tranquil Abiding Mind • Emptiness of Phenomena • Selflessness of Persons • Loving Kindness Meditation > * LEARN MORE ABOUT LAM RIM |
