In Buddhist tradition, patience (kshanti in Sanskrit) is considered one of the six paramitas (perfections) that a spiritual practitioner must develop to attain enlightenment. Patience is regarded as a profound quality essential to personal growth.

NB Mexico Dharma Night with Acharya Tashi Wangchuk

During our next Dharma Night, Acharya Tashi will explain how we can train our minds to endure suffering, hardship, and challenges without becoming angry or agitated. When we become impatient and “lose our cool,” it’s a sign that we need to cultivate greater equanimity, understanding, and mindful attention to our reactions. Shifting away from impatience toward greater tolerance is the heart of this practice. 

By intentionally developing patience, we can transform our state of mind — from irritation and upset, to peace and clarity.

Dharma Night is an informal gathering where we discuss the dharma and learn from each other’s challenges and experiences. We meditate a little, consider a topic, and enjoy time together. This program is open to everyone and is free of charge.

Please join this informal gathering!
