Shakyamuni Buddha taught a threefold approach to study. First we must listen to the teachings, then contemplate what we have heard, and then meditate. Geshe Sherab will teach on the importance of study, and why these three aspects, hearing, contemplation and meditation, what is meant by each of these terms and why it is recommended that we follow in this order. Geshela will also comment on some of the challenges that our busy 21st century lives present to us and approaches we can take to overcome them. There will be time at the end for a Question & Answer.
