SUMMARY:Final Wednesday Study Class
DESCRIPTION:Final Wednesday Study Class for the Term\nPresentations will take place on this evening. \nIn the Nalanda Hall\, 6.00-7.30pm \nTopic: Lama Tsongkhapa’s famous text Middle Length Lam Rim \n \nCost for the course is $225 for the 15 weeks. Cost of the hardcopy textbook is $100. \nWe will study The Middle-Length Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment   by Je Tsongkhapa\, translated by Philip Quarcoo\, 2021 edition. \nAs a foundation and context for practice\, this subject is a key element of the FPMT Basic Program.

Upon completion\, students should be able to conduct their own lamrim retreats and to use the lamrim as a basis and context for their meditation\, further study\, and daily life experience. \nGeshela will focus on the topic of karma \n  \nClass offered in person and online via Zoom. \n  \nFor direct credit\, please email us for bank info. \nEmail meditate@chandrakirti.co.nz if you have further questions and registration.
