ACI FOUNDATION COURSE 18
Great Ideas of Buddhism Pt. III

The three-part "Great Ideas of Buddhism" series summarizes all fifteen Buddhist Foundation Courses, along with the teachings of the traditional training of a Tibetan Buddhist Master. In part three, we cover course 11 - 15:

  • A Guide to the Bodhisattvas Way of Life (parts 2 & 3)

  • The Art of Reasoning

  • Lojong, Developing the Good Heart

  • What the Buddha Really Meant

This is course 18 of the 18 Buddhist Foundation Courses offered by the Asian Classics Institute (ACI) at Three Jewels. ACI provides 18 courses that progress through the entire teachings of the Buddhist path to enlightenment in the Hinayana and Mahayana schools. The courses are provided generously by the founder of Three Jewels, Geshe Michael Roach, who translated a large body of texts from Tibetan, and condensed a quarter century's worth of study into a 5 year, drop-in course complete with homeworks and quizzes. Drop in every once in a while, or complete coursework for a certificate. All courses are offered free of charge.

10 classes starting Sep 20th
