In Buddhism, painful emotions are known as ‘delusions’. They are called this precisely because when we are experiencing them our perceptions are distorted. These deluded states of mind -- anger, desirous attachment, jealousy, to name a few -- are guaranteed to create unhappiness for us and for others. This is why we need to learn skillful methods for recognizing them and letting them go. In this series we will practise the meditation on the clarity of the mind to help us work with painful emotions. We will also learn to apply special opponents for directly transforming each delusion. How much happier our life will be if we are no longer held captive by these painful emotions!

When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within.

The meditation on the clarity of the mind is one of the best and most powerful methods to facilitate this shift - allowing us to easily let go of busyness and distraction and to access an experience of mental peace and calm.

In this special weekly series, we will learn step-by-step how to meditate on the nature of the mind - a state of inner clarity that naturally restores our well being and reveals our unlimited potential for growth and development.

Find the missing peace and discover your true self - or ‘Buddha Nature’ - through this simple, yet profound meditation.
