Day Course with guest Teacher Gen Kelsang Chökyong
Seeing Through the Illusion
10.00am - 5.15pm
How do things really exist?
Are things as solid and real as they seem? Emptiness is the way that things really are. It is the way things exist as opposed to the way that they appear to exist. There is no greater method for experiencing peace of mind and happiness than to understand and meditate on emptiness.
The Teacher
A disciple of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, Gen Kelsang Chökyong is a Buddhist monk who has been studying, practising and teaching meditation for over 25 years. He was ordained in April 2000 and trained at Tara Kadampa Buddhist Centre, near Derby, one of the foremost Buddhist retreat centres in Europe.
