In this weekend retreat held in Santa Barbara, California, B. Alan Wallace, Ph.D. explores methods of cultivating genuine happiness. The retreat consists of meditation, lecture, and discussion periods focusing on the themes found in Wallace’s book “Genuine Happiness.” These include methods for cultivating attentional stability and vividness, contemplative insight, and the Four Immeasurables of loving kindness, equanimity, compassion and sympathetic joy. The teachings are designed to help us integrate practice into our everyday life in the world through mind training.
The downloadable MP3 audio files, and the four-disc DVD video set, chronicles the weekend retreat “The Cultivation of Genuine Happiness Meditation as the Path to Fulfillment” held at Santa Barbara’s historical Old Mission July 24-26, 2009.
