Geshe Tashi - What the Buddha said Introduction

From June 2011 until July 2013

JBCL is delighted to host a new structured learning course by Geshe Tashi. Running over 2 years, the course starts on 4-5 June 2011 with 'What the Buddha Said' and will run until July 2013.

The course is divided into five modules, each looking at different sutras from the collection of Buddhist sutras translated into Tibetan called the Kanjur. Geshe Tashi is offering this course because HH Dalai Lama often says that Tibetan Buddhists should study the Indian sources for their religion, not just rely on works written by Tibetans. In this way students gain a clearer understanding of the richness of the Indian traditions of practice, which is sometimes lost in the simplifications of Tibetan 'school' works. The five modules will cover sutras from the two broad styles of Buddhist practice, Hinayana and Mahayana.
