The Truth About How Things Exist

The nature of wisdom is a virtuous intelligent mind that functions to understand meaningful objects such as the existence of past and future lives, karma and emptiness. Understanding these objects brings great meaning to our life.
Course and Teacher

Outline
Wisdom will never deceive us. It is our inner Spiritual Guide who leads us to correct paths, paths that take us beyond suffering.
In particular, through learning to develop and increase our wisdom realising emptiness, a wisdom understanding the way things exist, we can be released from suffering permanently. This wisdom is extremely profound. Its object, emptiness, is not nothingness but is the real nature of all phenomena. It directly opposes the root delusion, self grasping ignorance, that is the root of all our problems.
Come along to this half day wisdom workshop and spend a meaningful morning immersed in this profound topic.

“Self-grasping ignorance is sometimes called a ‘seed’ and sometimes a ‘root’. It is called a ‘seed’ because all sufferings arise from it as crops grow from seeds, and it is called a ‘root’ because all our fears, frustrations, and sufferings grow from it as fruits and flowers grow from the root of a tree. We cannot abandon self-grasping ignorance unless we meditate on emptiness.. It is only a direct realisation of emptiness that actually frees us from samsara.”
