A DAY COURSE
with James Longridge
lovewithoutpain
During this day course , James Longridge will explain and guide us in the meditation known as developing cherishing love. In ordinary life, we often confuse love with desirous attachment, and as a result we often experience pain and disappointment within our so-called ‘loving’ relationships. But authentic love can never cause pain. It only ever produces happiness.
Why? Because true love actually arises from a profound understanding of our interdependence and interconnection with everyone. This understanding liberates us from our painful self-centered grasping attachments, and opens us to an expansive and ever more inclusive empathy and love that brings joy, harmony and purpose into our lives.
Through talks and guided meditations, James will take us into the heart of this practice. There will be the opportunity for Q&A throughout the day.
Each session can be attended on a drop-in basis.
James has been studying, practicing, and teaching Kadampa Buddhism for over 30 years. He shows a humble, kind example as a practitioner, and his clear explanations of Buddha's teachings give us the confidence to practice them in our daily lives.
