"Increasing Our Longing to Help Others: Teachings for the Modern Day Bodhisattvas "
Pema Osel Do Ngak Choling, 322 Eastman Cross Road, Vershire, VT 05079
Bodhichitta, often translated as "awakened heart," refers to an intense desire to alleviate suffering. Ani Pema will teach from the first chapter of The Way of the Bodhisattva, in which the Indian sage Shantideva offers a rhapsody on the wonders of bodhichitta, inspiring us to connect with the very best of ourselves in order to help others do the same.

"The Marks of Our Existence"
Omega Institute, Rhinebeck, NY.
Our very existence is characterized by four "truths" or "marks" of our existence: impermanence, egolessness, suffering, and peace. Understanding these truths leads to profound equanimity in our lives. For more information: www.eomega.org
