Advice for Meditation Understanding the mind

Gen Tubchen

Based on the book How to Transform Your Life, Gen Tubchen explains why meditation is essential for peace and happiness. She helps us see that developing better external conditions will never bring lasting happiness, instead we need to develop good internal conditions – improving the quality of our minds. By enhancing the quality of our thoughts and emotions through meditation, we can create a foundation for true contentment and fulfilment in life. This extract is taken from a teaching given by Gen Tubchen at KMC Aberdeen, UK.
