HH Karmapa speaks on Compassion - Live Webcast

We are happy to announce that there will be a live streaming webcast of the teaching which will take place on Friday, July 29, at 7:30 pm Eastern Time.

   
His Holiness will address the essential question we all must answer on the path of awakening: how is compassion related to understanding the true nature of our minds?  As the Third Karmapa taught,

"When the energy of unbearable compassion is unceasing,

In expressions of loving kindness,
the truth of its essential emptiness is nakedly clear.

This unity is the supreme unerring path.

Inseparable from it, may we meditate day and night."

--from "The Aspiration Prayer of Mahamudra"
