The Way Things Are

Study Course with traveling teacher Karol Sleczek

Saturday 13 - Sunday 14 March

Karol has been a student of Lama Ole Nydahl since the late 1970s and played a key role in establishing Diamond Way Buddhism in his native country, Poland. Every year he is invited to teach in Diamond Way Buddhist centres all around the world and is admired for his wisdom, incisive teachings and dry sense of humour.
In London Karol will give a special course based on Lama Ole Nydahl's book 'The Way Things Are', in which over four sessions, he will comment on and answer questions in relation to the book.
To get the most benefit from the weekend, we are advised to come prepared for the course by reading the book beforehand and to bring along any specific questions that we have concerning what we have read. Karol emphasises the importance of this, as it will enable us to go deeper into the subject matter.
