The Asura Realm
10 Worlds Teaching Series
Join us on June 26 for an online talk by Dr. Larry Ward, poet, dharma teacher and acclaimed author of America’s Racial Karma.
For this talk, Larry will guide us through the asura realm in the Buddhist wheel of life (bhavacakra). Fueled by ego and aggression, the gods (asuras) strive for power and position.
This event is a part of our year long teaching series on the Buddhist story of The 10 Worlds, ten different yet interconnected states of mind that we all inhabit. They are fluid and impermanent. All ten are existential realities with their own moods, characteristics and inquiries. No matter the realm, each one invites us on a quest to learn more about ourselves, to build our capacity to adapt to the challenges we face, and to help relieve the suffering of all beings through breaking free from the cycle of samsara.
Event also includes: Guided meditation, gentle movement exercises, poetry and practice invitations.
