SUMMARY:How to Enpower Your Mind with Bhante Sujatha
DESCRIPTION:When Buddha 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 understand how they are influenced\, the root causes of struggle and what we can do with our minds to make things better\, sustainable happiness and radiant joy are the result. My life as a Buddhist monk has given me a front row seat to incredible transformation within so many people as I teach them how to empower the mind and cultivate the qualities that will help you find strength and happiness\, as well as give 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.

SUMMARY:FINDING TRUE PEACE (BY FORGIVING EVERYONE) WITH BHANTE SUJATHA
DESCRIPTION:Finding True Peace (by forgiving everyone)… a discussion on how to let go and move on.\nBy Bhante Sujatha\nBuddha said\, to understand everything is to forgive everything. Does this make you mad? Yes\, me too sometimes. It’s easy to say we forgive but not easy to do\, especially when someone has wronged or hurt us. All the wisdom teachings I know of invite us to find true inner peace by letting go of the hurt others have caused. When we realize that to hold on to anger only causes us harm\, it becomes more urgent to learn ways to cultivate compassion and extend forgiveness.\nA common misunderstanding is the belief that once you forgive you are done. I have found\, forgiveness requires daily renewal and vigilant effort. As with all things in this life\, our feelings change moment by moment\, so\, we have to work to forgive again and again every day\, every moment. Please join me in a conversational workshop on forgiveness and the steps we must take to truly forgive ourselves and others\, love ourselves\, and renew this commitment every day. Forgive others not because they deserve forgiveness\, but because you deserve peace – Buddha\n\nWhy Should You attend?\nBhante believes his purpose is not only to teach meditation\, but also\, “teaching people how to be happy.”\nFee: $40\nProceeds go to to Bhante’s Incubator Project in Sri Lanka\nBhante does his book signing after the workshop and chooses loving kindness T Shirts also available to purchase.\nBhante Sujatha\, a 30+ year Buddhist Monk\, is singularly focuses 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.

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.
