Principles of Buddhist Psychology
Join us for a fresh and eye-opening exploration of the Abhidharma, a collection of Buddhist scriptures that investigate the workings of the mind and the states of human consciousness.
Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, author of the text we will be studying, Glimpses of Abhidharma, is one of the most creative and important masters of our time. His unique teaching style clarifies and deepens ones understanding of the Dharma in often surprising and revealing ways.
Whether you are new to Buddhism or a seasoned practitioner, studying this text will bring you closer to the heart of the Buddha’s teachings.
