It is impossible to find a single problem, misfortune or painful experience that does not arise from self-cherishing.
What exactly is self-cherishing? It is our mind thinking ‘I am important’ – while others seem less important, and their needs somehow less pressing.
Of all the innumerable thoughts we have each day, self-cherishing is the most harmful and causes all our problems.
In these classes, discover the wisdom of Exchanging Self With Others – a profound Buddhist practice where we climb down the mountain of self, and see the world from the perspective of the mountain of others.
Drop into a class at Turner or Griffith any week to learn about this radical wisdom that eliminates the cause of all our problems – and the transformative meditations associated with this practice.
