Study Meeting
NeW: Dharmadhara Study meeting starting in january 2025
In addition to our ongoing seminars, we offer Dharmadhara participants an accompanying study group. The basis for this is the text The 37 Practices of Bodhisattvas by Gyalse Thogme Zangpo (1295-1369), an important scholar of Tibetan Buddhism. This text provides precise instructions for the path of a bodhisattva. It shows how we can develop compassion, wisdom, and patience and overcome mental afflictions such as anger, pride, and attachment.
Each session includes group recitation, an input lecture by a teacher or advanced student, and time for exchange and discussion among participants. Apart from individual lectures, the study meeting is held in German.
Who?
All Dharmadhara participants and interested individuals.
When?
Every fourth Sunday of the month from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
