This retreat is an introduction to the foundations of Buddhism via teachings on The Four Noble Truths, the heart of Buddhist practice. Thanks to the truth of the cessation of suffering, we can be liberated while we are living in the world. When suffering ceases, we experience freedom from afflictive emotions and only perfect equanimity (buddha nature) remains. This is the Buddha’s profound insight that a peaceful mind can be cultivated via meditation and that a peaceful mind is the cause of happiness and joy.
ENTERING THE BUDDHIST PATH
Just as the disease need be diagnosed, its cause eliminated, a healthy state achieved and the remedy implemented, so also should suffering, its causes, its cessation and the path be known, removed, attained, and undertaken.
