January Gifts & Graces: Empowering your Mind
January 5 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Rumi says, “what you seek is seeking you”… perhaps it’s true. The evidence of the power of our minds is undeniable. The ancient texts of the Buddha tell us that no external condition can be the cause of our happiness; only the mind has that ability. When people clearly understand how they are influenced, the root causes of struggle and what we can do with our minds to make things better are revealed. The result is sustainable happiness and radiant joy.
As a Buddhist monk, Bhante Sujatha has lived a life dedicated to the cultivation of mind and heart. He has been given a front row seat to the incredible transformations that have developed within so many people that he has taught through his experience on how to empower their minds.
Cultivating these qualities will help you to find strength and happiness, as well as nurture in you a burning desire to add more love to the world. When we understand our mind, we begin to re-shape our behavior and feelings about so many things. It’s the most loving act of service one can do for themselves and the world.
*Choose Loving-Kindness Items and Bhante’s publications will be available for purchase on site, and Bhante will be available for book signing following the program. Proceeds from all sales go directly toward supporting Bhante Sujatha’s charitable work in Sri Lanka and around the globe.
