The four noble truths: 1. The truth of suffering, 2. The truth of the causes of suffering, 3. The truth of the cessation of suffering, and 4. The truth of the path to the cessation of suffering. The Four Noble Truths was the first teaching historical Shakyamuni Buddha gave upon attaining enlightenment. These four noble truths are considered noble because they liberate us from suffering.
Geshe Lobsang will share with us how gaining familiarity with these four truths will deepen our spiritual understanding allowing us to develop true wisdom from which we can take positive actions benefiting all sentient beings. As we begin to study and practice these four liberating insights we begin to build the foundation of our spiritual life following in the footsteps of our spitural masters.

Your donations and support are Emaho’s heartbeat.
Every day, Emaho supports our spiritual growth by providing tools and techniques passed to us by our kind and generous spiritual teacher, ZaChoeje Rinpoche. To follow in the footsteps of an authentic lineage master is our greatest fortune. With learning and practice, we become more spiritually aware, become kinder and more compassionate. With these qualities, we live more peacefully. ZaChoeje Rinpoche and the Emaho monks have given us an extremely rare gift.
More now than ever, we need your year-end financial support. Closing the center when the pandemic struck has taken a financial toll. If you are currently an Emaho Benefactor, we are asking you to consider increasing your monthly donation if you are able. If you aren’t presently a Benefactor, we encourage you to become a regular donor. If you would like to donate a one-time contribution, no amount is too small.
