Our misguided notions of self cause all of our problems. Jeffrey will teach how to recognize and dispel our mistaken views and embrace the world from a more realistic—and loving—perspective. Through Dharma talks, discussion, and guided meditation, we will explore how to put the content of the great Buddhist works into practice in daily life. Based on the book by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, translated by Jeffrey Hopkins.
Jeffrey's teaching is penetrating, humorous, and insightful. We are delighted and honored to welcome him back to the Abbey for more teachings on this profound topic.
Jeffrey Hopkins PhD served for a decade as the interpreter for the Dalai Lama. A Buddhist practitioner, scholar, and author of more than 35 books and translations, he is emeritus professor of Tibetan and Buddhist studies at the University of Virginia.
