The MP3 CD version of this program can be played on an MP3 player or on your computer. It cannot be played on an ordinary audio CD player. After this course, students will have a clear idea of the path to enlightenment, especially its three main components: renunciation, bodhicitta and the right view of emptiness. They will understand the progressive, step-like structure of the lam-rim, its origin in the teachings of Guru Shakyamuni Buddha, the three scopes, where they fit at their present stage of spiritual development, what they need to do next, and how they get from there to enlightenment. Teachings are led by Ven Robina Courtin, who is known for her captivating and dynamic teaching style. The guided meditations on renunciation, the wisdom of emptiness, and bodhichitta are led by Ven Constance Miller. Module 3 contains: - Written Guidelines for how to proceed through the program.
