Buddha taught that love is the great protector. Both we ourselves and others are protected by love from harmful actions and suffering, and a loving heart inspires us to treat others with consideration and kindness. 


However, our love is often mixed with attachment, which makes us possessive, anxious and easily hurt. Come explore Buddha’s wisdom teachings on how to discern the difference between love and attachment, and learn methods to weaken our attachment while improving our mind of love.


This Tuesday evening meditation class will take a practical look at Buddha’s teachings on the nature and function of our mind. Each week will include:




Tuesday, October 17 - Love vs. Attachment

Saturday, October 28 at 7pm - Special event with International Buddhist Teacher Kadam Morten Clausen

Tuesday, November 14 - How to Actualize our Potential

Tuesday, December 12 - Key Meditations for the Holiday Season.



Location: These classes are held at the Church of the Covenant, 67 Newbury St.
