Lama Tenpa Gyaltsen will teach on The Eight Verses of Mind Training by Geshe Langri Tangpa. These teachings are particularly useful when we encounter negative people. They teach us how to remain calm so that we are better able to help others.
Hinayana studies introduce us to Buddhism as a science of mind, or method of investigation. The Hinayana Path and Fruition, the second of two Hinayana courses, lays the foundation for bringing this view into our practice and our daily lives. This foundation is the crucial support needed for continuing into Mahayana and Vajrayana.

In the Mahayana teachings, we look at the possibility of limitless compassion and bodhichitta, the boundless intention to help all sentient beings. This motivation and its application are based on the crucial Mahayana notion that all sentient beings possess buddha nature.
