Shoryu's Heart Sutra Class

1/14/2021

0 Comments

 
Shoryu Bradley of Gyobutsuji in Kingston, AR will offer Heart Sutra study on Saturday mornings from Jan 23 - Mar 10: The Heart of Great Perfect Wisdom Sutra is one of Buddhism's Pranja Paramita Sutras expounding the teachings of emptiness. Any thorough discussion of the Heart Sutra should include examining the basic teachings of Buddhism, so this class will include an overview of teachings such as the Four Noble Truths, the 12-fold Chain, the Eighteen Elements and the Two Truths. But at its core, the Heart Sutra is mirror for the study of the self, so this class is intended to help participants deepen their understanding of what it means to be a human being and support an aspiration to live an awakened life. Please email Shoryu for more details.
