Specific attention will be focused on the analytic thoughts and meditations, worldviews, research, and secular techniques said to reduce anger and apathy and increase patience and joyful effort in daily living.<\/p>\n<p>The Buddhist perspective will be examined through a close reading of two chapters from the sixth century Indian mater Shantideva\u2019s timeless classic, the&nbsp;<em>Guide to the Bodhisattva\u2019s Way of Life<\/em>,&nbsp;a beloved text in all the Tibetan Buddhist tradition\u2019s lineages and often praised by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as a peerless text on the cultivation of compassion. Shantideva\u2019s text offers techniques and inspiration to avoid major psychological pitfalls on the path to developing a deep altruism for others and oneself.<\/p>\n<p>Western clinical and social psychology specializes in the observation, description and development of humans as social beings, illuminating the best and worst of behavior. The Western psychological perspective will be examined through readings on theories of emotion, motivation, and social behavior.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A combination of philosophical study, discussion, reflection, and meditation training will be utilized in the exploration of these topics and the interstices and convergences between Buddhist and western psychology.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:104%;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column fusion-flex-align-self-center\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:21px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-bottom:35px;width:100%;\"><\/div><div style=\"text-align:right;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-3d fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/maitripa.org\/registrar\/maitripa-college-catalog\/course-descriptions\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">Go to full course catalog index<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-retired"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.8) -
