This can upset or worry us, make us inpatient, or worse, make us sick. However, we can live calm and cheerful, enjoy our lives, and not be bound with negative thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\n<p>This seminar focuses on sharing ways to try controlling your mind while explaining underlying philosophies and techniques such as meditation and mindfulness (*Note: this is not a solicitation to a specific religion).<\/p>\n<h2>Guest Speaker<\/h2>\n<h4><strong>Myofuku-Nichijun Endo, Buddhist Priest \u9060\u85e4\u00a0 \u5999\u798f\u65e5\u9806\u3000\u6cd5\u5e2b<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h6>Attained priesthood on July 1, 2012 at Shishiozan Myohoji Temple\uff08\u7345\u5b50\u738b\u5c71\u5999\u6cd5\u5bfa), the headquarter of Shoho-ji school, Hokke (Nichiren) Sect of Buddhism\uff08\u6b63\u6cd5\u4e8b\u9580\u6cd5\u83ef\u5b97\uff09<\/h6>\n<p>Origin of my posthumous Buddhist name:\u00a0 Leading people to happiness and fulfilling life according to the Truth\uff08\u771f\u7406\uff09.<\/p>\n<p>Since the causes of problems and anxieties vary, she listens to each person\u2019s story and discuss specific methods suited to the individual, or leads the discussion in groups.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Attend<\/h2>\n<p>Anyone interested can attend but pre-registration is required.
