When our minds come under the influence of attachment, we lose a great deal of freedom and no longer see things according to reality. Our minds become disturbed and we become like slaves to whatever we are attached to. This in turn, creates suffering for both ourselves and potentially, for those around us. In this class, we we examine the way to overcome attachment, by cultivating and meditating on its antidote. |

Aversion is a mind that focuses upon an unattractive aspect of a feeling, person or object. When it arises in our minds, we immediately feel unhappy and disturbed. Moreover, this emotion leads to other harmful feelings, such as anger and hatred, as well as to negative actions such as harsh speech. Aversion is therefore a very destructive emotion. In this class, we will look at how to overcome this very harmful emotion by relying on antidotes. |

Public Talk "Meditation on the Antidote to Ignorance"
by Geshe Ngawang Phende
|
6:30 pm
LiveStream
|
Ignorance is a mental factor that has the characteristic of unknowing. It also includes minds that are not merely unknowing, but that actively misperceive reality. When we are under the influence of ignorance, we are unable to see the world correctly and as a result, we are also unable to act correctly. We thereby create many problems in our own lives and in the lives of others. Ignorance is, therefore, the main source of suffering in our lives. In this class, we will look at how we can deal with this mind by cultivating its antidote. |
