Description
The purpose of a spiritual path is to take us beyond inner dogmas and habitual patterns of thinking and behavior in order to deeply develop conscious experience. Otherwise, conditioned concepts of who we are-as a result of our upbringing, education, communities, culture, and so on-lock us into ways of being that can bring stress, hardship, and confusion, and most importantly, that can block the fruition of our inner potential. Cofounded by Buddhist master Segyu Rinpoche and four longtime students, Juniper is extending into modern culture a profound Buddhist lineage for developing the mind. By extracting the essence of Buddhist thought from the cultural wrapper in which we receive it, Juniper is making the path of Buddhist training relevant and accessible. This rich methodology and way of being has much to offer in contemporary life, and Juniper's aim is to open the door for those seeking to embrace it. Learning to Meditate provides instruction on how to begin and develop a meditation practice. It is suitable for beginners, and for experienced meditators seeking to learn meditation in this tradition.
