Mind Reactive and Creative

Mind Reactive and Creative

By Sthiramitra on Wed, 30 Apr, 2025 - 15:40

One of the Buddha’s key insights is that our state of mind conditions our thoughts, which in turn condition our actions, and thereby our world.

Through meditation and practical day-to-day activites we can move towards a richer, more fulfiling and joyful life.

We look at one of the Buddha’s teachings in which he describes a sequence of ever-increasing creative states of mind.

Participants will receive the book Mind – Reactive and Creative as part of the course.

Course offered on a donation bases.

This Being, That Becomes

This being, that becomes
From the arising of this, that arises.
This not being, that does not become
From the cessation of this, that ceases…
Nidanasamyutta

Reflect on the end of one year and open to the new. These words from the Buddha provide us with a potent and pithy statement of this transition – and of a central Buddhist truth of dependent arising.

Spend this valuable time of ceasing and arising on retreat with Bodhilila and...
