Meditation + Dharma Learning: “The Ten Paramitas: Generosity Part 2”
April 13, 2019 @ 1:15 pm - 3:30 pm CDT
Please join us tonight, Saturday April 13th, for meditation followed by Dharma Learning on the “Ten Paramitas.”
This week, we will continue to study the First Paramita: Dāna (Generosity, Giving). We will read articles on not just Giving, but also the power & practice of Receiving. What is the intimate inter-relationship between Giving and Receiving? Why is Receiving also a form of generosity? What mindset should we have as we Receive? And, ultimately, why is there really no separate giver, receiver, or gift?
