How Love Frees Us from Anger and Conflict
A Day Course with Resident Teacher, France Roy
​
We often feel that our stress and conflicts are caused by other people or external situations. However, in How to Solve Our Human Problems, Geshe Kelsang Gyatso suggests a radical shift in perspective: "Most of our emotional problems are nothing more than a failure to accept things as they are." When we hold onto subtle judgments or wish for people to be different than they are, we unknowingly create the foundation for anger and resentment.
In this day course, we will explore the profound practice of patient acceptance. Far from being a passive "tolerance," this mind of acceptance is a powerful form of love that frees us from the tightness of defensiveness and blame. Through guided meditation and practical teachings, we will learn how to identify the subtle judgments that fuel conflict and replace resentment with a "calm, clear space" of acceptance.
Join us to discover how letting go of the wish for things to be different is the key to lasting peace and harmonious relationships.
