About this event

Thursdays 7 –8:30pm | with Resident Teacher Kelsang Sama | £8 per class | held at KMC Manchester, Chorlton

In this busy world, our experiences of happiness are fleeting and short-lived, while inner peace eludes us completely. On the other hand, our negative states of mind, such as uncontrolled desire and anger, create endless problems for ourselves and others, and prevent us from fulfilling our deepest wishes. Using the book How to Solve Our Human Problems by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, we will embark on a scientific exploration of the causes of our daily problems and difficulties, and the solutions to them. In this way we can learn how to use Buddha’s teachings to change our world by changing our mind.

In this powerful book, Venerable Geshe-la begins by presenting Buddha’s popular teaching on the Four Noble Truths, which offers a clear and simple solution to all our problems, guiding us to an oasis of peace within our hearts. He then focuses in particular on overcoming the problem of anger, learning how to develop and maintain patience when faced with even the most difficult circumstances.

“The instructions given in this book are methods for improving our human nature and qualities through developing the capacity of our mind.”- Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
