Drop in meditation class – guided in English

_____

Wednesday 7pm – 8.30pm

These general Programme classes are open to anyone interested in meditation and solving our human problems from the side of our own mind.

Each evening offers the opportunity to follow guided meditations and listen to a teaching on how to practically improve our mind to find real happiness in our daily life.

The teachings are based on the books of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, who presents the ancient wisdom of Buddha in a modern day presentation, suitable for us to understand and practice.

The classes are suitable for both beginners and more advanced practitioners, and emphasise how to use meditation and subsequent practices amidst the busyness of modern, daily life.  The union of Buddha’s teachings and our daily life is the essence of Kadampa Buddhism.

At the end of the class there is time for discussion and questions.

You will go relaxed and inspired into the rest of your week.

Join us. Everyone is welcome!

About these classes:

The nature of wisdom is a virtuous, intelligent mind whose functions are to dispel confusion and to understand meaningful objects. Many people are very intelligent in destroying their enemies, caring for their families, finding what they want, and so on, but this is not wisdom. Even animals have such intelligence. Worldly intelligence is deceptive, whereas wisdom will never deceive us.
Since time without beginning we have been under the control of our mind, like a puppet on a string. We are like a servant working for our mind; whenever our mind wants to do something, we have to do it without any choice. Sometimes our mind is like a crazy elephant creating so many problems and dangers for ourself and others. By sincerely engaging in spiritual practice, we can reverse this situation and gain mastery over our mind.Transforming our mind in this way, we will finally enjoy real freedom.
This does not mean, however, that we should ignore external conditions. We need inner peace, but we also need good physical health. And for this we need certain external conditions such as food and a comfortable environment in which to live. …  We need to maintain a middle way that avoids both extremes of materialism and spirituality.

Practical, life-changing advice for everyone.

The evenings are self-contained, so you can join in at any time.

No experience necessary. Everyone is welcome.
