Workshop Description.
Just as a cup that is already full cannot hold more water, a person who feels they already know everything has no room to learn from others or from life’s experiences. In contrast, a humble person who sees themselves as a beginner and respects everyone they meet is open to learning from every person and situation. By cultivating a beginner's mind, we can make steady progress on our meditation path, improving month by month and year by year.
In this special course, Gen Kelsang Rabten, Resident Teacher of Kadampa Meditation Centres in Australia and Melbourne, will share valuable methods for maintaining a humble, open-minded approach to meditation, no matter how advanced we become.
