— Sunday, 9am to 10am (AEDT) — ONLINE (zoom link below)
This week covers Session 5. Mindfulness of Body
The Buddhist way of studying the psychology of the mind is called Abhidharma. This profound way of looking into and classifying the mind enables us to deepen our understanding of how consciousness operates and eventually recognize our true nature, which is beyond thoughts, emotions, and perceptions.
The Weekly Buddhism Study Group covers topics from Tergar’s Vajrayana Online. From September 15, we will be studying Buddhist psychology on Sunday mornings for a year, beginning with a 9 week course on the Essence of Buddhist psychology, followed by an immersion course in Budddhist psychology that will run until mid-2025
The basic format for each Sunday is :
opening aspirations
teachings
a guided meditation or reflection
discussion and sharing
closing dedications
REGISTRATION
There won’t be any cost to attend, though donations are warmly welcome and accepted here.
Selected online course material from Vajrayana Online is presented. While a Vajrayana Online subscription is not required, it is highly suggested for independent study along with the program. It is also needed for volunteer facilitators each week.
Email Rod McCrea if you would like to join this group or if you have any other questions.
We will communicate between sessions using Slack. Ask Rod to send an invite to join our Tergar Australia Slack site (if you haven’t joined already) and visit our Buddhist-psychology channel. You can download and join Slack here.
