Tonglen Practice

"Good Medicine"

Pema ChodronThere will be a new Pema Chödrön 2-tape video, called Good Medicine, shown on Saturday May 15; one at 10 AM with a break for lunch and one about 1PM.

In this three hour workshop Pema Chodron shares the gift of tonglen, a simple and elegant meditation system "for ordinary people like ourselves." Through tonglen we can use the difficulties of life - those that cause the most suffering - as a way to befriend ourselves, accept the past we have rejected, and widen our circle of compassion. These traditional breathing meditations cut through obstacles "on the spot."
