Our lives seem to be an endless cycle of ups and downs, hope, fear, pleasure, pain, achievement and disappointment, where we are perpetually wanting something else and our happiness and satisfaction DON'T last for very long.
But things don't necessarily have to be this way.
The Buddha taught that it is possible to completely transform our lives and experience a state of UNCONDITIONAL LASTING HAPPINESS, freedom and joy.
This is nirvana - a state of everlasting peace and well-being.
Buddhist teachings clearly outline the mechanisms of cause and effect. These teachings show us clearly how we create our own difficulties, as well as how we can break free of the cycles that keep us locked in to unhappiness and suffering.
Through Buddhism we will investigate how we can empower ourselves with Buddhist teachings, mindfulness meditation & practical methods that will help us find the lasting happiness, peace, confidence, commitment and energy for spiritual transformation.
No one can give you lasting happiness and peace. It have to be found within yourself through Buddhist teachings and with its practical investigation to see things clearly for yourself - why you are here, how your mind & universe works.
Purpose of Satipatthana Sutta Discourse -
Overcoming of sorrow and lamentation, for the extinguishing of suffering and grief, for walking on the path of truth, for the realization of Nirvana.
