Noble Truths

Khenpo Tsering will visit Martha’s Vineyard tomorrow and Sunday for a weekend teaching series, the Four Noble Truths. An understanding of the Four Noble Truths is essential to Buddhist practice and offers a method to deal with the difficulties that are part of everyday life.

The teachings will be held from 10 a.m. to noon and 2 to 4 p.m. both days at the Bodhi Path Buddhist Center, 21 Laurand Drive in West Tisbury. All are welcome to attend a single session or the whole series.
