New Teachings Start Tomorrow, Wednesday the 3rd

Beginning on Wednesday, March the 3rd, Geshe Dhonam will teach on Calm Abiding and Penetrative Insight.

The teaching comes from the Medium Lam Rim text by Je Tzong Khapa. The english translation of the Calm Abiding text is the focus of the book A Balanced Mind by A Wallace and the Penetrative Insight chapter is in Final Wisdom by Jeffrey Hopkins. While we will have some photocopies of the chapters available at the classes, those who are interested in these topics, will find the books useful long term. They are available from Amazon UK or Wisdom Publications among other retailers.

Here is the full Trashi Gomang Schedule for the next while:
