Everyday Consciousness and Primordial Awareness

By Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche

From Shambhala Publications :

This introduction to Buddhist psychology supplies essential instructions for successful meditation practice. Rinpoche presents meditation practices that can powerfully influence and ultimately transform the mind into the purified mind of a Buddha. He clearly describes how consciousnesses operate in everyday perception and how at the time of Buddhahood, these same consciousnesses express the five primordial wisdoms of the five Buddha families.

Guidelines to be established at the first meeting.

Instigators: Cynthia Irvine and Craig Hill. Please note that this is a peer-led book club and discussion circle, not a formal training or class.

Note: This book explains the components of the mind and the wisdom energies that can be uncovered through practice. Anybody is welcome, but some people might prefer a less-cognitive approach to practice.

Please email cynthia@kcc.org to RSVP, or let Cynthia or Craig know in person if you are interested in attending.
