SUMMARY:What Happens When We Die?
DESCRIPTION:As the autumn season is well and truly upon us\, and the leaves begin to fall\, it’s the perfect time to reflect on impermanence and change. Join us on All Hallows Eve to explore the Buddhist approach to death and the dying process. But don’t be scared! You’re in the safe hands of our dear Resident Teacher\, Geshe Tenzin Namdak.\n \nThis will be a day dedicated to learning about the Buddhist perspective on life\, death and rebirth. Over the course of the day we will learn about the theory and practice for how to cultivate mindfulness of death using the three roots and nine reasons\, and why this is important if we are to live a meaningful and fulfilled life. We will also learn about the death process according to Buddhism with teachings on the eight stages of dissolution. The day will be interspersed with talks\, meditations\, discussion and Q&A.\n \nThis is a hybrid event\, with the possibility to join in-person or online over zoom. Recordings of the event will be made available to all those who register.\n \n \n \nAbout the teacher\nGeshe Tenzin Namdak completed his university studies in Hydrology before working as an environmental researcher in the Netherlands.
