The first and third Wednesdays of each month 6:50pm – 8:45pm
The evening takes place in two halves. Usually in the first half, we explore an aspect of Buddhism with an opportunity for discussion. After a short break, we will introduce one of two Buddhist meditations.
Dharma
Dharma is the name for the teachings of the Buddha. We introduce Dharma in a way that is accessible and practical to everyday life in the modern world. Usually the format is a short presentation, followed by breaking into smaller groups for discussion.
Meditation
We teach two Buddhist meditation practices: Mindfulness of Breathing, for developing awareness, integration and clarity of mind; and Mettā Bhāvanā (“development of loving kindness”), which brings about a gentle but radical transformation of our emotional world. Each session we alternate between the two practices.
We will help you to set up in good posture and give a fully led practice, so there is no need for any previous experience.
