Why do things happen the way they do? How do we create the causes for a happy life? Venerable Thubten Chodron continues a series of teachings over Memorial Day weekend based on her book, "Good Karma: How to Create the Causes of Happiness and Avoid the Causes of Suffering", a commentary on “The Wheel of Sharp Weapons” by Indian sage Dharmarakshita. With practical advice and plenty of humor, Venerable Chodron brings this 9th century mind-training text to life. It teaches how to eliminate the causes of anxiety, fear, and depression, and to create the causes of joyful liberation for ourselves and others.

Join us at Terrain Gallery for ‘The Table Is Set’, a unique art show by Liv Hebert Watkins, honoring the everyday people, objects, and rituals in life. The central aspect of this concept is the dinner table– a space where individuals gather and interact as a whole; despite differences in background, culture, language or family ties. There is beauty in the simple act of gathering, sharing a warm drink, eating food, and sitting together. Combining iconographic halos with commonplace faces and objects, Liv explores the beauty and divinity of the ordinary.

Immerse yourself into a beautiful world of artwork and tales. 50 full-page drawings, supporting illustrations and stories, all wrapped up in a Victiorian style publication, complete with imaginary ads, letters to the Editor, social tips, advise columns, and even the odd recipe. Stop on by to chat with artist and author Keith Harrop for his "Anicurio Collection" and pick up a signed copy!
This event is free and open to the public.
