About Event:
Living peacefully relates to 3 things…how we think, how we speak and how we act.
The basic principle of living peacefully is to live ethically and the basic principle of living ethically is to consider others. Built on a wholehearted concern for others based in developing our compassion and wisdom, living our lives peacefully benefits both others and ourselves.
We can develop a state of mind that wishes to consciously participate in cultivating more co-operative, supportive and harmonious relationships whether with our family and friends, our community or the world and all its inhabitants.
But in order to do to this we must consider many aspects of our own mind, our own lives and our own relationship to the world around us.
This weekend course explores how our thoughts, words and actions directly affect our ability to live peacefully and ethically. We consider what we can do right now and into the future to ensure a life lived well both for ourselves and others.
