The Inner Wealth of Contentment

The Inner Wealth of Contentment

Enjoying life without craving
Half-Day Course with Gen Kelsang Thekchen

In our search for happiness, we often waste our time and energy changing our job, partner, home, situation, and trying many different things in hopes of finding contentment. However, we will never know real satisfaction until we change our restless, discontented mind.

On this half day course, Gen Thekchen will show us how to develop the lost art of contentment through Buddhist meditation, enabling us to find true inner peace. When our mind is free from distraction and cravings, we can experience its natural stillness, allowing us to enjoy every moment of our life, regardless of the external situation.
