The Yoga of Ordinary Living
Vimalakirti Workshop
This weekend will focus on the application of Buddhist theory and practice to everyday life using the short Buddhist sutra, The Holy Teachings of Vimalakirti, as its basis. Particular emphasis will be placed on practical considerations, such as how to study Buddhism, the varieties of the teaching, the importance of learning and discussing ideas in a group, different forms of meditation, the role of a spiritual friend or teacher, and more. We will meditate upon Buddhist philosophical and religious concepts, and consider how the insights gained can infuse our "ordinary" personal lives with new energy and clarity.
