Gen Kelsang Chögyan at KMC Quebec
What a wonderful evening we had with our special guest, Gen Kelsang Chögyan, for a talk on anxiety and Buddhism!
Gen Chögyan skillfully guided us to understand that any restlessness in our mind is only a temporary state, not intrinsic to us. Although anxiety may arise in the mind, it doesn’t mean we are inherently “anxious people,” she explained. Through her teachings on patient acceptance, we learned that this inner position of strength and stability will help us find constructive solutions to better our world and contribute positively. Everyone was delighted to have taken part in this event, and many returned the next day for the workshop on Mental Load: How to Lighten Up.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend so meaningful, and a special thanks to Gen Chögyan for her clear, inspiring, and encouraging teachings.
Finally, thank you to Venerable Geshe-la for bringing the light of wisdom that enables us to gradually dispel the darkness in our minds.
