Learning From Dreams

What do our dreams teach us about reality?

Dreams have great significance in helping us understand the relationship between our mind and our ‘reality.’ Our dreams can give us a first hand understanding of Buddha’s profound teaching on the way things really exist, called emptiness.

In these classes we will learn about our dreams and the way that we ourself, others and our world actually exist, according to Buddha. This extraordinary wisdom helps us in every situation, reducing our anxiety and fears and increasing our lightness and joy. Ultimately, Buddha’s teachings on emptiness shatter the “matrix” of our own mental prison and bring us to ultimate freedom.
