What is karma? Understanding why things happen

DJI_0348

What is karma? Generally, karma means “action”. From non-virtuous actions comes suffering and from virtuous actions comes happiness: if we believe this, we believe in karma. The law of karma explains why each individual has a unique disposition, a unique physical appearance and unique experiences.  Over this weekend retreat we will explore Buddha’s liberating teachings on karma and learn how to take control of our own future, to prevent suffering and to establish the basic foundation for the path to liberation and enlightenment.
