Do we get what we deserve in this life (or indeed the next)? Well in a way, yes we do. The Buddha taught that we will be changed by our intentional actions, but when, how and in what ways? This week, Vimaladasa will be exploring the often misunderstood teaching of the law of karma and what it means for living the spiritual life.
During this theme we'll be looking at The Wheel of Life, a living symbol that encompasses the entirety of existence. We'll learn how to escape from the prison and sufferings of Samsara, towards ever increasing positive and expansive states of being, towards the ultimate goal of Awakening.
We'll be taking a contemporary look at this ancient symbol, visiting it's realms and their beings from the depths of the hell realm to the heights of the heavenly abodes, and asking what do these realms look like in our modern society and world?
Expect support for home practice, practical ideas of how to bring these traditional teachings into your everyday life, and reflections on how to make your Great Escape!
