Living without Regret

Human Experience in the Light of Tibetan Buddhism

May 7 – 8, 2011 Ratna Ling, California  ||  with Arnaud Maitland

We have been conditioned to believe that human beings cannot essentially change, that "this is how I am." While we sometimes feel cheerful, free, and self-assured, we are not in charge of these moods and cannot sustain them. Eventually we grow frustrated with this powerlessness, with our inability to direct our lives. If we fail to work with this frustration, we may end up with no real way out, expressing our hunger for inner freedom to a secret diary or locking it away in a private corner of our minds.

There is another way...

Living Without Regret, "Precious Human Life"

At whatever stage of life, change and transition are constants, and impermanence is a reliable truth. Embracing change and accepting inevitable loss allows you to live with wisdom and confidence.

In this seminar you will learn to:

• Heal the past – clearing body, mind and heart.

• Discover the immediacy and intimacy of the present and appreciate the nature, value and energy of time, and

• Prepare for the future – discover the Bardos mentioned in the Tibetan Book of the Dead

• Sustain positive energy, positive feelings and positive mind

Through lecture, dynamic inquiry, dialogue, Tibetan Meditation, and Kum Nye Yoga, experience the life-changing wisdom of living without regret. Arnaud Maitland brings the ancient teachings of the Tibetan Buddhist Nyingma lineage into contemporary world culture. An international lecturer, consultant, and retreat leader throughout South America, Europe, and the United States, Arnaud Maitland is also the author of Living without Regret, Human Experience in Light of Tibetan Buddhism, and MasterWork, Incorporating the power of time;
