Book cover for Samara, Nirvana, and Buddha Nature

Ven. Thubten Chodron continues her line by line reading and commentary of the remarkable  multi-volume book series encompassing the entire Buddhist path, The Library of Wisdom and Compassion. His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Ven. Chodron are co-authors.

The book series and this course offer a rich opportunity to delve into important aspects of Buddhist philosophy. The opening chapters of Volume 3, Samsara, Nirvana, and Buddha Nature, dive deeply into the Buddha’s foundational teaching: the Four Noble Truths.

The course includes  meditations, daily teachings, and structured group discussions. We recommend reading the first three chapters prior to the course.

Ven. Chodron taught the first volume, Approaching the Budddhist Path, in weekly installments over two years. Watch the series here.

She began Volume 2, The Foundation of Buddhist Practice, in two residential courses (see them here) and has just finished this volume in weekly Livestreamed teachings. (Archived here.)
