Basics

For those with an interest in Buddhism, this course is based on two of the most famous and well-loved texts in Buddhist literature. "Life of Milarepa" is a fascinating, colourful account of one person's spiritual journey from the depths of personal despair to complete enlightenment. "The Words of My Perfect Teacher" by Paltrul Rinpoche is a complete outline of the Buddhist path to enlightenment. We will alternate between these two texts.
