October 29 – December 3, 2018: Class Series on Monday Evenings – The Gradual Path to Freedom and Happiness
Awakening Your Wise Mind, Warm Heart and Inner Altruist Through Insight Meditation
Course Three in the four-year Sustainable Happiness Program with Dr. Pilar Jennings
This third course in the Nalanda Institute Sustainable Happiness Program covers everything you need to know about contemplative living, a step at a time, gradually unpacking the insights of self-healing, social engagement, and heroic altruism together with the practices of mindfulness, compassion and role-modeling imagery that foster them. Taught by contemplative psychotherapist and celebrated author Dr. Pilar Jennings, the course surveys the lifelong journey of contemplative healing and transformation at the heart of the Nalanda tradition preserved in Tibet. This world-class system of learning, reflection, and practice, designed to sustain contemplative life in the busy world, maps our journey from surviving to thriving in ways that empower us to make tangible progress through step-by-step insight and life-change.
This class is open to all, whether or not you’ve taken a prior Sustainable Happiness course.
Certificate-track students must meet prescribed requirements.
A day-long retreat is scheduled at the end of the course on December 8th which may be taken separately. Find out more about the retreat.
