“WHO AM I?: BUDDHIST WISDOM OF NO SELF”
WE LIVE OUR LIVES THINKING WE KNOW WHO WE ARE. BUT DO WE REALLY? FURTHER REFLECTION DISCOVERS WE MAY NOT KNOW WHO WE ARE. IN FACT, THIS MISTAKEN VIEW OF OURSELF LEADS TO STRONG ATTACHMENT AND ANGER. THESE ROB US OF OUR INNER PEACE AND ERODE OUR SELF-CONFIDENCE AND COURAGE. COME TO THIS PROGRAM WHERE WE DISCUSS ‘THE HEART OF WISDOM SUTRA’ TO FIND OUT WHO WE REALLY ARE. WE’LL ALSO MEDITATE TOGETHER.
– Barry Kerzin
Dr. Barry Kerzin will teach “Heart Sutra” in Tokyo.
We will be happy if you can join this precious meditation program and practice with us.
