If we can accept that craving, anger, ignorance and other negative states of the mind are like diseases that make our body and mind unhealthy, we'll naturally want to find an effective way to start healing. Dharma is the Sanskrit word for Buddha's wisdom. Meditating on this wisdom is regarded as medicine for the mental pain caused by our negative minds. Sometimes people encourage us to engage in meditation as part of a healthy lifestyle. If we've never meditated, we might wonder how such a simple action can have a healing effect. But, once we get started – especially with the meditations at the heart of Buddha's teachings – we can see why so many people recommend meditation. Everyone is welcome to this class. The advice we'll receive is practical, relatable, and well suited to our busy lifestyles.
