Peace is Possible
​
with Gen Kelsang Chenma
In our world there is so much conflict, and even in our personal lives we often find it difficult to maintain harmonious relationships with others. We might wonder whether peace is possible. It definitely is, but first we need to establish it within our own mind.
These classes will be based on the book The New Eight Steps to Happiness by Ven. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.

"Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible."
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche

A Life of Great Meaning

with Gen Kelsang Chenma
“We are all interconnected in a web of kindness from which it is impossible to separate ourself. Everything we have and everything we enjoy, including our very life, is due to the kindness of others. In fact, every happiness there is in the world arises as a result of others’ kindness.” ~ Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, How to Transform Your Life
