Session 18 of 22 – Arya Nagarjuna’s Sixty Stanzas of Reasoning on the Wisdom of Emptiness for the Ultimate Mental Wellbeing by Geshé Dorji Damdul, Director of Tibet House, Cultural Centre of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, New Delhi in collaboration with Deer Park Institute, Bir, Himachal Pradesh.
Date November 03 – 10, 2023
Arya Nagarjuna – arguably the greatest Buddhist Philosopher in India produced after the Buddha himself and whose appearance was prophesied by Him – commented extensively on the wisdom of ultimate reality as originally taught by the Buddha Shakyamuni, to lay bare its subtlest meaning. The Buddha taught the wisdom of emptiness for the express purpose of liberating all beings from the incessant miseries of samsara. Sixty Reasons on Emptiness is one of these legacies of Arya Nagarjuna, where he succinctly explains emptiness in all its profundity and glory, with numerous facets and nuances. This Study Retreat will systematically guide participants on the sophisticated, yet accessible, mechanisms by which all beings’ immediate pains and, more importantly, long-term miseries, are removed by bringing about cognitive transformation using the wisdom of emptiness.
