Death and Dying: A Buddhist Perspective Saturday, October 16 from 10am to 12:30pm
In our society, death and dying are often perceived as inherently negative topics of conversation and are often shrouded in confusion, grief and suffering. However, Buddhism offers a completely different perspective based on a profound understanding of the process of dying, the meaning of death, and what we can do to protect ourself and help others during such a critical passage in our life.
During this meditation workshop Gen Khedrub will help us come to terms with our own mortality and transform death into a liberating experience.
This workshop will include guided meditations, teachings and time for Q&A. Everyone is welcome.
Note: This class will be delivered in-person and online via a Zoom webinar. Our new location is 2298 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge, just a few blocks from the Davis Square T stop. After registering you will receive instructions on how to watch the sessions. This event will have a replay option of 48 so you can register now and watch later.
