This course takes participants on an experiential journey through The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, giving you a taste of its major themes and their practical implications. Suitable for people of any religion or of none, the course encourages you to reflect on the Buddhist teachings, to see what makes sense to you and to experiment with applying these teachings in your daily life.

Participants in this course will learn:

  • How to meditate

  • How an acceptance of impermanence can help us understand death and change our attitude towards life

  • How meditation can transform our perception, increase our confidence and fully connect us to the world around us

  • That mind is much more than just thoughts and emotions

  • How understanding the interdependency fo all things and the principle of karma (that every action has an effect) gives us a logical basis for ethics and personal responsibility.
