The Buddha taught the Noble Eightfold Path (N8P) as the Way to the complete ending of suffering (dukkha). However, that does not mean we have to wait and continue to suffer until that time.
Instead, we can use N8P here and now to end our predominant pains and problems! As we do, we peel off this "mass of suffering" layer by layer along with the egoistic identifications attached to it. And we move closer to the complete end of suffering, which is nirvana.
This Dharma Camp, conducted by Ven. Kumara Bhikkhu, covers:
- Divine Living
- Counting Blessings
- Mindful Living
- If you knew me better...
- Being Present
- If I have the power to change my life...
- Ending Suffering Here & Now: How can I let go? (Self-inquiry)

- sadness/grief
- obsession/addiction
- unvirtuous/immoral actions
- Spiritual Videos
- Exercises (Qigong/Yoga)
IMPORTANT: This course involves deep emotional, mental, and spiritual purification. It will challenge our ego-constructs. If one is willing to undergo this for the sake of freedom from suffering, then one is encouraged to attend.
