IN DEPTH SERIES
friday night lectures
A regular event where we explore Buddhist perspectives on contemporary questions. There is no meditation in this class, but we leave lots of time for Q&A.
THE WHEEL OF LIFE
FRIDAY 12 SEPTEMBER 7PM - 8PM
The Wheel of Life was a diagram drawn by Buddha that teaches the complete path to enlightenment. Included within it are Buddha’s teachings on The Four Noble Truths, telling us what we should know, abandon, practice and attain to escape the cycle of suffering Buddha called samsara.
This Friday Night Lecture will give a practical and contemplative tour of the Wheel of Life and show how we can use this diagram to inspire our meditations and guide us along the spiritual path.
TIME: 7pm to 8pm, plus Q & A
COST: $20
