Meditate in Ballito | Defusing anger-bombs

November 20 @ 6:00 pm - 7:15 pm

Event Series Event Series (See All)
R90.00

If an actual bomb goes off, since its sole function is to cause harm – all that remains afterwards is destruction and immense pain for those involved. Anger is similar in having a single function, to cause harm and devastating effects.

 

We already know it’s destructive but how deeply do we understand this deluded reaction we have to things we don’t like?

 

Buddha gave very clear explanations of anger, from its most subtle form, frustration or annoyance to full blown rage. He did this with the sole compassionate wish to give us the opportunity of a life free from anger.

 

In this meditation class series Buddhist monk, Gen Jampel will explain the wisdom of understanding and abandoning anger and guide gentle meditations to take this on board.

 

Through this we will be able to:

  • Understand why we get angry
  • Develop a force in our mind to oppose anger
  • Begin reducing and finally abandoning anger altogether
  • Grow the power of our acceptance
  • Learn how to cope with suffering

 

Each class consists of a talk and two guided meditations.  The classes are self-contained and presented as part of a series. Drop into any class.
Classes are suitable for beginners and those wishing to deepen their experience.

 

Everybody’s welcome!
