How Buddhism Helps

How to achieve authentic happiness, how to effectively help the ones we love, and how to become part of the solution to global problems. Discover Buddhist answers to real-world dilemmas for an authentic and safe direction in life.

This course presents the core teachings of the Buddhist path presented in bite-size pieces we can easily digest. It is based on the Three Principal Aspects of the Path, a teaching from the Buddha that shows us how to deal with negative emotions so they don’t overwhelm us, how to develop a natural sense of compassion, and how to develop a realistic (and optimistic!) view of ourselves and the world.

These three are known as Renunciation, Bodhicitta and the Unmistaken View. Although they may be familiar Buddhist terms, what do they mean for our day-to-day life? How can we practice this philosophy as ‘applied Buddhism’ to change our own life and help all those around us?

With practical examples from daily life, discover the profound benefit these three principal aspects can have on your own spiritual journey as well as your everyday life. You do not have to be a Buddhist, or even religious, to benefit from this simple yet profound approach.
