The Nine Consciousnesses (an introduction to Buddhism)

Have you ever wondered why we are able to see, hear, smell, taste and touch ? Do our mental pictures correspond faithfully to the physical realities that we perceive ? .. then what is dream ? .. or why we can sense our own existence ?

What would happen to our "Self" when we die ? Is there "after-life ?

Have you ever repeatedly run into certain mistakes that seem hopelessly unable to be rectified ? Have you ever questioned why two lives collide as if pre-arranged but bitterly parted in the end. Are these all pure chance or fated ? or can we control our destiny ?

Come to explore what is behind the veil of consciousness: The "Nine Consciousnesses" - the Buddhist theory in explaining the nature of our lives with identification of consciousness in nine levels.
