Wednesday Dharma Class

24 June 09

At Wednesday's Dharma Class the 15 members attending watched the final of a series of three DVDs about Buddhism. This last one was about “The Three Dharma Seals.” The viewing was followed by discussion of its meaning and application of these concepts in daily life, such as learning to contribute and participate in team work. The topic of “The Five Precepts” which was the previously seen DVD was also discussed with a similar focus - how it relates to our day-to-day lives. For example although "no use of intoxicants" is one of the five precepts, it is also already a part of most peoples lives in the form of alcohol. But every member expressed a willingness to change.
