Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, appeared in this world in the 624 BC. Throughout his life he gave 84,000 different teachings or Dharma. To help us understand how we can integrate these teachings into our daily life, the Buddhist Master Atisha wrote Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment also known as Stages of the Path or Lamrim in Tibetan.In this series of classes we will look in general at the three different scopes of the Lamrim and have the opportunity to learn how we can integrate these timeless teachings into our daily life.
For those who are interested, this series will be done as a part of three weekend retreats on Lamrim. Please visit our January 2010 Retreats webpage for more information.
