Feb. 10 Evening Dharma Talk with Rev. Nobuko Miyoshi

Flipping to the Right Side Up

Rev. Nobuko Miyoshi

For 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 10 in the Temple's Sangha Hall, please join us for guest speaker Rev. Nobuko Miyoshi of the West Covina Buddhist Temple

Rev. Miyoshi will speak on the topic of "Flipping to the Right Side Up." Miyoshi Sensei plans on helping us understand the concept as a Buddhist response to human suffering, delusion, and ignorance. In this metaphor, we are flip from living with the wrong side up, from the torture of wrong views that are akin to being hung upside down, when we recognize our the cause of our sufferings.
