Eight Steps to a Happy Life: A Weekend Workshop

7:00 pm Friday, June 2, 2017

Kadampa Center is happy to welcome Visiting Teacher Don Handrick for a weekend workshop on Eight Steps to a Happy Life!

The Noble Eightfold Path is one of the principal teachings of the Buddha and still has great relevance today, providing us with effective guidelines for how to live our lives and develop spiritually. In this weekend course we will explore these eight factors that can alleviate our suffering and train in their skillful and practical application in order to find true happiness in daily life and beyond.

Don Handrick will help us explore these guidelines and how they can help us live truly happy, meaningful lives.

The schedule:

Friday, June 2  7-8:30 pm

Saturday, June 3  10 am - noon and 1:30 - 4 pm

Sunday, June 4   1:30 - 4 pm

Don will also teach our regular  Sunday morning Dharma for a Happy life, from 10:30-noon.

We encourage folks to bring a bag lunch on Saturday and Sunday, so we can keep our momentum by discussing the morning's teachings over lunch -- and get better acquainted in the process!

As always, these Dharma teachings will be offered with no entrance fee. However, there are extensive costs involved in bringing a visiting teacher from another city, including travel and food.  A great way to support the teachings is through sponsorship!

Sponsor Taking the Path to a Happy Life

Want to do more than just come and hear teachings?  We need volunteers to help greet folks at the door, and set up and take down water bowl offerings.  Sign up here for the volunteer job of your choice!
