Training In Wisdom

From Sheffield Buddhist Centre on Thu, 30 May, 2024 - 00:00

We don't need to wait for some time in the future to develop wisdom; we can start training in it right now. This week Prajnahridaya will introduce us to a hard-cutting mind training slogan that can help us to do this. How would we act in every ordinary moment if we were Enlightened?
