SUMMARY:How to be your own best friend: A conversation on the practice of loving-kindness
DESCRIPTION:How to be your own best friend: A conversation on the practice of loving-kindness\nWednesday\, May 4th at 6:30pm\nWith Bhante Sujatha\nIn these times\, we strive to achieve more and we desire more than we ever have and yet our happiness and the peace we all seek continues to slip further and further away. We see the burning desire within so many people to love more deeply\, to live more fully and to find sustainable sturdy happiness.\nMany religions and wisdom teachers encourage us to cherish one another as a way to find what we’re all seeking…. however it’s clearly not working. Until we authentically learn to love ourselves and become our own best friends\, we are lost. Not yet have we seen someone find true inner peace and happiness without first loving themselves.\nThrough the very simple but not very easy practice of loving-kindness meditation we can change the destiny of humanity. When we practice loving-kindness to ourselves first we are giving a unique and powerful gift to the whole world… It’s through our self love that we love the whole world. Loving-kindness meditation when practiced with sincerity and commitment can alter your brain and change the way you see the whole world.\nWhen you change the way you see the world\, the world changes.\nPlease join Buddhist Monk Bhante Sujatha in a conversation about how to find sturdy happiness and inner peace through the practice of loving-kindness meditation.\n* Fee $40\n* Advanced registration required. Call/text 732-800-6960 or register online at bookingwithintentions.com\n* Proceeds go to Bhante’ s pregnant mother’s and Incubator Project in Sri Lanka\n* Book signing and choose loving kindness Items are available to purchase\nBhante Sujatha\, a 30+ year Buddhist Monk\, is singularly focused on adding more love in the world. Bhante teaches loving-kindness meditation to people around the globe for all those seeking the art of happiness and contentment. His approach to meditation is deep and simple\, bringing core Buddhist teachings to everyone in a way that is practical and easy to understand. A joyful\, radiant\, funny and wildly energetic monk\, Bhante will help you obtain peace that can only be found in deep silence. He is originally from Sri Lanka and is the head monk / abbot of the Blue Lotus Buddhist Temple and Meditation Center in Woodstock\, IL.\n\nBhante believes his purpose is not only to teach meditation\, but also\, “teaching people how to be happy.”
