Introduction to Buddhism- The Three Yanas

For more than 40 years, the Columbus Karma Thegsum Choling has been teaching meditation to the public for free at its meditation center in Central Ohio. Now we are offering our Dharma Paths series of introductory Buddhsim courses online.

There are nine classes in the series, but you can start anywhere in the series and take the classes in any order. Each class is taught by one of our trained meditation instructors.

This week's class, titled "The Three Vehicles", covers the following topics:

-The Three Vehicles as approaches to spiritual practice that provide dharma students with a progressive path.

-The Hinayana, emphasizing view and including motivation, practice, and goal.

-The Mahayana, emphasizing view and including motivation, practice, and goal.

-The Vajrayana, emphasizing view and including motivation, practice, and goal.

There will also be time for questions and discussion.

May all beings benefit!
