‘The Meaning of Life, from a Buddhist Perspective’ Which will lead us to Peace and Happiness
The Venerable Acharya Panchen Ötrul Rinpoche will teach the Meaning of Life using the Text given by Buddha Shakymuni which is called ‘The Wheel of Life’ or ‘Dependent Origination’.
This is a very important text. A large depiction of The Wheel of Life is displayed at the entrance to all Tibetan Monastic Buildings.
This was originally displayed at the request of the Buddha himself, and so is still continued today. It stresses the great importance of this Text in our daily lives.
During these teachings Ven. Panchen Otrul Rinpoche will explain how we can live our lives with a greater understanding.
Also using the Buddha’s first teaching of the Four Noble Truths, Rinpoche will lead us, from a Buddhist perspective, to the Peace and Happiness which is within each one of us, and which we all seek.
The weekend of Saturday 7th & Sunday 8th February 2015
4 What is meant by Ethical Behaviour ?
The teachings this weekend will explain why ethical behaviour is not only important in our life, but vital. We live in a world of Sensory Experience of both pleasure and pain.
Much of daily life is used to increase the sense of pleasure and to remove any feelings of pain. So it is important for our Basic Happiness and freedom from Suffering, for ourselves and others, both now and in the future, that we appreciate the Deeper reasons for practising Ethical behaviour and realise the resultant affect in our life.
