🧑‍🚒In this clip, Gen Delek gives some encouragement in response to a comment that many people today feel hopeless when left alone with their minds. Our thoughts can be scary! But we can bravely face them and gradually extinguish the source of the fear.

Buddha says it is the delusions in the mind, not the mind itself that is the problem.
Delusions are agitated or uncomfortable states of mind, such as anger, that are based on a mistaken apprehension of reality. Facing our delusions can feel like a daunting task but by practising Buddha’s teachings we can learn to recognize, reduce, and eventually completely abandon our delusions.

In The New Eight Steps to Happiness book, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso says:

“It is true that to make authentic spiritual progress we need to develop confidence in our spiritual potential, and to acknowledge and improve our good qualities. However, we also need a keen and realistic awareness of our present faults and imperfections. If we are honest with ourself we will recognize that at the moment our mind is filled with defilements such as anger, attachment and ignorance. These mental diseases will not go away just by our pretending they do not exist. The only way we can ever get rid of them is by honestly acknowledging their existence and then making the effort to eliminate them.”

Geshe Kelsang Gyatso said:

“The intention to cherish others, wanting to help others, having a beneficial intention towards others is the Bodhisattva‘s way of life, the Bodhisattva’s intention.”

We are celebrating KMC Vancouver’s 30th anniversary with an inspirational course on Mahayana refuge and the Bodhisattva’s way of life. What better way to celebrate than by connecting with the vision that inspired Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso to found our centre in 1996!

🎉Come join us this Saturday for a time of great rejoicing and celebration!
