TUESDAYS 7:30 – 9 PM
Since our human life can end at anytime we should apply effort to create and maintain a fulfilling daily experience of our life. The general method of accomplishing this is to train the mind to be habitually positive, kind, and considerate. In this way we can build a resilient and meaningful life. This is in contrast to a common ordinary life engaged in the pursuit of wealth, status, and possessions. All of which are lost at the time of death.

The minds of all ordinary beings are afflicted by three inner poisons. They are ignorance, attachment, and anger. These poisons ultimately cause all of our own personal problems and suffering, but also the the problems and suffering experienced by everyone in this world. This means if we can subdue and eradicate these minds permanently, we shall attain everlasting happiness. If we make little or no effort to accomplish this, our suffering and problems will persist life after life without end. Therefore, it is most wise to learn how oppose and abandon these minds
