Extraordinary courses to explore the power of positive minds
In the last few weeks, participants in France, Sweden and South Africa have had the opportunity to engage in various courses to explore the power of positive minds.
The National Spiritual Director of the Nordic Region, Gen Kelsang Dragpa, visited KMC Stockholm last weekend. On Friday evening he gave a talk on overcoming discouragement and on Saturday, taught a day course on why we need faith.
Gen Dragpa shared one of Venerable Geshe-la's essential instructions "Don't worry, just try!" which was perfect advice for overcoming discouragement.
We also learnt that developing faith involves leaving our pride at the door, not our common sense!
The course was very well received by the local Sangha and it was great to explore these important topics with such an experienced Teacher.
