In this two-day retreat, Venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi will present the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path. After attaining enlightenment, the Buddha had to find words to communicate his insight. As Thich Nhat Hanh put it, “He already had the water, but he had to discover jars like the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path to hold it.” These were the first teachings of the Buddha, and he continued teaching them throughout his long life, and right up until his passing.
These practical teachings are considered to be the foundation of Buddhist practice. This retreat is ideal for those considering the Path, but also beneficial for advanced practitioners.
Retreatants will gather at their local Sanghas and connect via the web with Venerable Tenzin who will be webcasting from MIT.
