Tibetan Buddhism's Seven Points of Mind Training have been the basis of a transformative practice for close to a millennium. Many believe that they cultivate the Buddha Nature inside each of us, reflecting on the quest for peace, contentment and selflessness in a world filled with turmoil and unrest.
For those who seek to learn about a philosophy and practice aimed at spiritual renewal, Buddhist teacher Shamar Rinpoche, author of "The Path to Awakening," will discuss Chekawa Yeshe Dorje's important text on mind training at this Milken Institute Forum. The insights contained in that text along with the meditation Shamar Rinpoche teaches are considered means of deepening wisdom and personal effectiveness. Among the questions the author may reflect on are what is dharma, what is enlightenment and how do we incorporate mindfulness into our everyday lives?
