Weekend Course on the Wheel of Life with Gen Dragpa
On the 11 & 12 of November, Kadampa Meditation Center Switzerland welcomed visiting guest teacher, Gen Kelsang Dragpa, who is the Resident Teacher at KMC Oslo in Norway and the National Spiritual Director of the Nordic Region.
Gen Kelsang Dragpa explained the profound meaning of the diagram of the Wheel of Life, originally drawn by Buddha. He used it to guide powerful meditations on the twelve dependent related links that explains the cycle of impure life - samsara, our own experience within samsara and how to be released from it.
On Saturday afternoon, everyone enjoyed watching the video of the play of The Wheel of Life which shows the life of King Bimbisara and the story of the how the diagram came to be made.
Venerable Geshe-la said, "The final result of watching this play is that we will develop and maintain a strong determination to liberate ourself and others permanently from the sufferings of this life and countless future lives - this is its purpose. It is therefore a wonderful play of holy Dharma."
The weekend was characterized by inspiring teachings and a joyful
atmosphere.
