Dear Dharma brothers and sisters
Menlhai Jamtse Tibetan Buddhist Centre would like to announce the schedule of the online teachings for the year 2024.
The classes will be led by Geshe Lobsang Tenzin la.
Text: Nagarjuna’s letter to a friend
Beside the theoretical teachings, the classes will include practical learning. The students will learn various meditations and contemplative practices.
About the author and the text:
Nagarjuna (1st-2nd century A.D.) wrote this celebrated poem as a letter of advice to his friend King Gautamiputra/Satavahana.
This advice gives a concise and comprehensive introduction to the entire path and practice of Buddhism. It guides both householders and the ordained onto the path leading to liberation and enlightenment. The instructions are of special interest to those who wish to take up spiritual activity while continuing to live and work in society; they are meant to convey the whole meaning of the Dharma to the ordinary person in a language and style that are easy to understand.Despite its short length (123 verses), it covers the whole Mahayana path with unusual clarity and memorable imagery; thus it is widely quoted by Tibet’s great masters and scholars in the many commentaries they have written on the Buddhist path.
