Sat 15 June | The Three Principal Aspects of The Path | Day Course | 10.30am – 5pm | With Gen Kelsang Zoma | Morden
A deep dive into Renunciation, Bodhichitta and Wisdom realizing emptiness.
One of the clearest presentations of the path to Enlightenment is a short poem called, The Three Principal Aspects of the Path. This legendary brief poem was composed 600 years ago by the extraordinary Spiritual Guide and founder of the New Kadampa lineage, Je Tsongkhapa. In merely 15 verses, Je Tsongkhapa distils the vastness of the Buddhist stages of the path to enlightenment to three essential realizations, or experiential understandings.
Gaining experience of these three – renunciation, bodhichitta, and the wisdom realizing emptiness – will give us the psychological and spiritual tools we need to transform every aspect of our life into our spiritual path, confidently and joyfully.
Gen Zoma will take us on a spiritual journey step-by-step through the development of each of these three understandings, based on the commentary by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche in his most recent book, The Mirror of Dharma (with Additions).
