Fuelling Patience, Igniting Energy
An Under-30 Seminar with Vajrashura
Saturday 12th October 2024, 10am – 1pm
Led by Vajrashura
On this seminar we will be exploring the qualities of kṣānti and vīrya, both qualities of the Bodhisattva, the being whose aim in life is to help people gain the freedom of Enlightenment.
Kṣānti is a beautiful term in Buddhism, meaning patience, forbearance, non-reactivity, receptivity – fundamentally it is about an openness to the full breadth of life.
Vīrya is energy – specifically the energy we need to really engage with the spiritual life; the energy we need to transform ourselves.
By exploring these complementary qualities, we will see how we can life a life infused and imbued with a radiant patience, and a vibrant responsiveness to everything that comes up in life and on the spiritual path.

Vajrashura started practicing yoga and learnt to meditate while in university doing a Masters in High Performance Computing. He firstly did these through university societies, and then in the Dublin Buddhist Centre. He has worked as part of the Centre Team since 2002 and in 2007 he joined the Triratna Buddhist Order.
Since ordination, he’s been one of the DBC’s main teachers, leading many courses, retreats, and events each year, and is concerned with helping people go more deeply into meditation and Buddhism. He also is helping coordinate the new retreat centre project and looks after the DBC finances.
