The Hinayana path is where every Buddhist practitioner begins. It is based on the mindfulness and awareness training of meditation as well as many other core Buddhist principles and teachings, როგორიცაა: The Four Noble Truths, არსებობის ოთხი ნიშანი, მაიტრი (friendliness to oneself), კარმა, ხუთი სკანდა, Mindfulness-ის ოთხი საფუძველი, and many more foundational teachings of the Buddha that are the heart the Buddhist practitioner’s path.

The registration fee for this course series is $399. While this may be a large upfront investment, you will receive multiple talks on each topic from some of Shambhala’s most treasured teachers, while gaining insight and tools to last a lifetime.
One of the most foundational Buddhist teachings, “The Four Noble Truths”, is used as the overall organizing principle for this course and is threaded throughout each session.
The Four Noble Truths are:
This first section of the 5-part course offers an exploration of the nature of suffering (the anxiety, დეპრესია, and fear we work with every day) from the perspective of another foundational Buddhist teaching – the Four Marks of Existence.
The Four Marks of Existence are: Impermanence, Suffering, Selflessness, and Peace, and we learn how we can meet our anxiety, depression and other forms of suffering with maitri – a sanskrit word for “unconditional friendliness.” The teachers also guide students in the exploration and practice of Mindfulness of Body, Mindfulness-ის ოთხი საფუძვლიდან პირველი – yet another core Buddhist teaching.
In his earliest teachings, the Buddha taught that the suffering, შფოთვა, დეპრესია, and fear of everyday existence is the First Noble Truth. Such underlying agitation and suffering is changing and impermanent, and it arises from infinite causes and conditions. თუმცა, it feels intensely personal (“mine”), და, სინამდვილეში, is one of the bases we use to craft our identity (“me and my problems”), which is called “mistaking what has no self for a self.” This state of mind generates constant underlying fear and anxiety. When we recognize these simple truths of existence, შეუსრულებლობა, ტანჯვა, and the absence of a “true self such as we perceive it,” we can experience the peace of nirvana – and much more contentment and joy.

Instructions in the Four Foundations of Mindfulness are interwoven with the teaching of The Four Noble Truths and provide a meditative method for embracing the totality of our basically good experience – which can include holding our anxiety, ტკივილი, შიში, and suffering with unconditional friendliness for ourselves, ან მაიტრი.
Having recognized the truth of anxiety, შიში, and suffering in our everyday life and the confusion that is also so often pervasive, ჩვენ ბუნებრივია გვაქვს კითხვები. How does this state of seemingly constant anxiety, გადატვირთავს, შიში, and suffering arise? Where does this confusion come from? In this in-depth exploration of another foundational Buddhist teaching – “The Five Skandhas” – ჩვენ სათითაოდ შევეხებით გამოცდილების ამ ფენებს ან თანავარსკვლავედებს, starting from the unconditioned, innate ground of open space, and see how we create our own world of projections. Through this exploration we can uncover what is real and begin to tune into more contentment and joy.

The foundational teachings of the Buddha indicate that the anxiety, შიში, დეპრესია, and other forms of suffering we experience in our lives can end if we recognize, ღრმად და ღრმად, როგორ გაჩნდა ეს ტანჯვა. ამას ნაზი სიმამაცე და ღრმა ჭვრეტა სჭირდება, and means we must be willing to go beyond any previous simplified ideas about how and why our anxiety, fears and suffering have arisen.

Contemplating that anxiety, შიში, depression and other forms of suffering can indeed end – that this is actually possible – we first see the possibility and accessibility of the third noble truth as the “gap.” We are basically good and innately worthy human beings. იმის გაგება, რომ ეს სიმართლეა, ასე მარტივია, და ჩვენ ამას მუდმივად ვუყურებთ. This can free us from our anxiety, შიში, and depression, and leads to freedom.

We have been studying the Buddha’s first teaching: The Four Noble Truths. After teaching that anxiety, დეპრესია, შიში, and other forms of suffering are pervasive to all experience, that there is a cause to that suffering and that the end of that suffering is possible, he then taught a way forward, which we call ”The Path.” In fact, everything the Buddha taught and all of our experience as practitioners are “The Path.” ამ კურსში, we will examine this notion of “The Path” from multiple perspectives of what has been taught by the Buddha and what is experienced by us as individuals walking this beautiful and profound path of transformation.
