What is the Mind in Tibetan Buddhism course?
'Mind in Tibetan Buddhism' introduces teachings and philosophies that explain the mind from the unique perspective of Tibetan 'Buddhist psychology' and ' Buddhist mind science,' traditional ancient knowledge, that is very relevant for today's modern audience whether Buddhist, or non-Buddhist.
Generally, we search externally for relief from daily dissatisfaction, in the belief that more money, a better house, job, relationship, etc., will eradicate our problems. And for a short time, they do. But we soon discover this 'happiness' is temporary and the security offered inadequate, especially when unexpected situations like the current pandemic, threaten our way of life, or even life itself. Unless we develop an awareness of the mind and its interrelationships in our mental continuum, suffering continues.
This in-depth course emphasizes and explains the importance of understanding the mind's true nature, distinctive features, and mental states which are only observable through the mind itself. Although there have been many advances in cognitive science, no scientific instrumentation exists that can detect or determine exactly where mind is.
