How to Live Lightly - How to increase everyday peace and happiness

  • Kadampa Meditasjonssenter Oslo 26 Majorstuveien Oslo, 0367 Norway (map)
  • Is it possible to experience happiness all the time?

    According to Buddha’s teachings yes we can, if we understand where real happiness comes from.

    External conditions and situations can only deliver a temporary happiness that quickly disappears. Often these conditions and situations don’t even give us the temporary relief that we expected.  Chasing such ordinary temporary happiness can cause anxiety, disappointment and frustration. 

    In this half day course Gen Dragpa will explain how to access the inner peace and happiness that is already within us and gradually develop longer lasting happiness, and how to nurture it every day.

    We can learn in a relaxed way to obtain a deep and meaningful joy from every encounter and situation.

    Main takeaways from this course:

    • External conditions cannot give us the happiness we are looking for

    • Happiness is an inside job !

    • With regular meditation practise we can decide to live lightly, joyfully
