The Five Aggregates with Khensur Thupten Tenzin Rinpoche (Hybrid)

The five aggregates are an important part of Buddhist philosophy that help to explain aspects of human experience. The five aggregates are found in many important Buddhist teachings and are used as tools for practicing mindfulness. The Buddha first mentions the five aggregates in his famous discourse, “Setting in Motion the Wheel of the Dharma”. In this class, Khensur Thupten Tenzin Rinpoche, assisted by Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., will explore the nature of the self through the lens of the five aggregates – form, feeling, perception, mental concepts, and consciousness. Through each of these aggregates they will examine the essence of the physical body, feelings and emotional response, our experience of the five senses, and how we compose our thoughts and develop intention through personal will. This class will help students in their development and practice of mindfulness and understanding of the nature of reality.

This online class consists of five recorded lectures and supporting meditations made available weekly on the student portal page, and one live online Q and A with Khensur Rinpoche. You will receive access to the class portal page and videos beginning on March 8. Lectures are offered in Tibetan with translation by Nyima Tsam.
