A Mindful Approach to Happiness

Hosted by: Petit Branch Library

Singha Namdrol Rinpoche, founder and spiritual director of Thekchen Choling centers in Singapore, Malaysia, and the United States, discusses the importance of happiness and how we can create more of it in our lives. He believes that selflessness leads to happiness – that by cultivating compassion and wishing the best for others, we become happier with ourselves. A sought-after teacher and public speaker, Singha Rinpoche has a gift for making complex ideas understandable and relatable. His talk is part of a fall residency at Thekchen Choling in Minoa, New York.
