The evening takes place in two halves. in which we explore an aspect of Buddhism with an opportunity for discussion. and one of the two Buddhist meditations that we practise.
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, sometimes 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.
Ritual
Sometimes the evening includes a short ritual, a reading or a mantra.
