Unfortunately\, in the spiritual life we quickly discover that ambition can become a hindrance rather than a help on the path. How can we find a new approach that will allow us to easily and joyfully make progress on the path? And how can we develop a motivation that does not reinforce ego-clinging? \nThis teaching\, based on pithy and practical instructions from Gendun Rinpoche\, is particularly relevant to Western students of meditation and spirituality as it’s something we often find ourselves struggling with\, no matter where we are on the path. \nSchedule \n• 10:30am-11am: Intro and Meditation\n• 11am-12:00pm: Teaching and discussion\n(all times in Central Daylight Time) \nPlease note: The teaching and discussion period alternates weekly: \n\nWeek A: General Q&A\, followed by Teaching\nWeek B: Teaching\, followed by Whole-Group Discussion\n\nSuggested donations \n• Standard: $15 per session\n• Sponsor: $25 per session\n• A voluntary teacher offering may be given separately\n• No one turned away for lack of funds. \nYou may donate via our website. Please specify “program offering” and/or “teacher offering” in the notes.
