There are different interpretations of it, and different aspects. Usually, what you hear of as Karma is some kind of fatalistic teaching. Actually it is rather more involved and precise than most people would think. Different seminal Buddhist texts deal with this topic, dividing it into 3 (or sometimes 4) sets of 4 kinds of Karma. We’ll be looking at the 3 sets. Confused? Then come along and join. Each set is a logical whole, so you can still follow even if you can only make it one of the nights. Abbreviated notes will be posted after each event. _________________________________ About Caru Dassini Now in her mid 40’s Mae Chee Caru Dassini has been in robes for over 20 years. She has lots of experience. She comes from the intense practise lineage of Sayadaw U Pandita lineage. She is also well qualified in Abhidhamma (intricate Buddhist philosophy and psychology) and the Pali Suttas. Sayalai Caru Dassini at Ariyasom Sayalai Caru Dassini has excellent English, and is very clear and focussed. We have hosted her a number of times before and are definitely keen to keep welcoming her in Bangkok. You will find her a clear and precise guide, with excellent communication skills.
