Short online courses
These courses, which consist of two or more sessions of teaching and meditations.
Sometimes it seems as if we are defined by our moods and feelings. If we are in a bad mood, for example, we become a certain type of person and behave in a particular way, but if we are in a good mood we are quite a different person and behave quite differently. But we find it difficult to control our feelings and moods and change them from negative to positive. Through meditation, however, we can learn to do this and thus control the kind of person we are.

At present our mind is tormented by grasping of many forms – grasping at possessions, friends, feelings, ideas, and even our sense of who we are. All our negativity and the suffering to which it gives rise comes from this grasping, especially our self-grasping. Buddha taught simple methods to reduce and eventually abandon all our grasping, and in this way become free from suffering.

Daily Puja (Chanted Prayers)
Join the prayers online from the Kadampa Temple for World Peace at Manjushri KMC
"In general, prayers made by an assembly of many practitioners are very powerful and cannot be compared to the prayers of one or two people. The scriptures give the analogy of a broom. If we try to clean a floor with a few bristles we shall make little progress, but if we gather many bristles to make a broom we shall be successful."
