Facing Fear, Finding Peace
Overlapping
global crises including the coronavirus pandemic, racial injustice, and
extreme climate-change events have brought us face-to-face with our
deepest fears: Fear of illness and dying. Fear of change. Fear of loss
of livelihood. Fear of an unknown future.
How can we meet our fear and pain with an open heart and transform these challenges? The ancient wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism tells us that when we’re able to recognize and embrace difficult emotions in the moment, we can step into the eye of the storm—the refuge of calm awareness at the very center of our being.
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, one of the few Bön masters in the West, is known for his ability to make ancient Tibetan practices relevant to life in the modern world. In October’s Dharma Talk series, he offers four traditional practices to transform fear and pain into spaciousness and inner strength.
Tenzin Wangyal will also be leading a live virtual practice session on Tuesday, October 13, at 1:00 p.m. EST. Click here to learn more and register.
