Other talks from Padmaloka
The first talk on the young men's retreat, Lokeshvara tells the story of Mara's assault on the Buddha and looks at it from a modern perspective and with reference to the System of Meditation.
Of particular interest is a section of the prevalence of depression in our society and current research which identifies the need for purpose in our lives. If we have a sense of purpose, that almost always connects to deeper values, if we can just see how.
Talk given at Young Men Retreat, Padmaloka 2012.
