Regular
Friday Fortnight Teachings
with Geshe Lobsang Jamyang
Geshe Lobsang Jamyang has been a student of Geshe Tashi Tsering
for over 20 years, and is a highly qualified teacher in his own
right. He is the resident Geshe at Chenrezig Institute, our sister
centre in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. He has many years of experience
in all aspects of Buddhist theory and practice, and is a warm and
enthusiastic teacher.
Teachings resume
on Friday 30th July 2010.
The Way of the Bodhisattva
Geshe-la is teaching from the text
The Way of the Bodhisattva, advice on how to make every
day of this life both compassionate and meaningful. We are into
Chapter 10 - on Wisdom.
Whilst Geshe-la is an
'easy ' Geshe, it's a 'hard' topic! Geshe-la explains the essential
meaning of each verse, unraveling the code as it were, and elaborates
on the often oblique references. He gives us supremely practical
advice on how to follow these methods so as to be able to change
our mind, and thus our life, for the better. Although we are working
our way through the root text, you can still join at any time.
Geshe-la has invited everyone who comes
to these teachings to email or write down any questions you may
have. We will then have a regular evening every few Fridays devoted
to answering these questions. They can about the topic we are studying
or about Buddhism in general. Please keep your questions succinct,
as Yaki has to translate them!
About the Evening
These teachings are most suitable
for intermediate students and the committed beginner. Geshe-la teaches
through a translator - Yaki Platt - an Israeli man who has worked
closely with Geshe-la for years. This gives us time to contemplate
the teachings in nice bite-size chunks. There is an opportunity
for questions at the end of teachings, and please join us for tea
and biscuits afterwards.
If you become a member
of LTC you can listen to the current teaching in our Member's Area
on the website.
