Developing a Heartfelt Practice: The Importance of Logic & Reasoning in Meditation

Meditation can seem like a method to empty our mind of thoughts to become peaceful. This method will only work temporarily. Buddha taught how our thoughts are internal paths – when channeled in a beneficial direction, and supported by logic and reasoning, they can actually guide us to a stable heartfelt experience of peace and relaxation.

This half-day course will be guided by Gen Kelsang Wangpo, a visiting guest teacher from Kadampa Meditation Center Texas. He will give teachings and guide meditations on the use of contemplation in a meditation practice.
