Discover Buddhism
Wednesday, June 04, 2008 (490 reads)
 Welcome to the Discovering
Buddhism program. Awakening the limitless potential of your mind,
achieving all peace and happiness. Venerable Dondrub will present the
Discovering Buddhism (DB) program . DB is designed as an experiential
course in Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and practice. The teachings are
drawn from the Geluk tradition of Lama Tsong Khapa, a great saint and
scholar of the 14th century, who presented the Buddha’s teachings as a
“graduated path to enlightenment”. The methods of the DB program also
reflect the unique styles of two great contemporary masters, Lama
Thubten Yeshe (1935-1984) and Lama Zopa Rinpoche (1945-present) and are
meant to help students “taste the chocolate” of the Buddha’s words.
