Developing Healthy Relationships
A 3-week series, August 10 - Sept 2
Thursday Evenings: 7 - 8:30pm
with Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Thekchen
This 3-week meditation series will examine how to make our relationships more stable and satisfying.
We learn to recognize the main source of our difficulties such as harmful minds of anger and attachment that destroy our trust and love. With the ability to see these minds as they develop, we can apply remedies such as patience and “true” love which only lead to peace and healthy communication.
- August 12: What is attachment?
- August 19: Anger and Patience
- August 26: What is Pure Love?

Sept 2: What is Pure Love? (part 2)
