Description

In this series of meditation classes we will focus on instructions for training our mind, in Tibetan called Lojong, so that we can transform our day-to-day lives – including even the most demanding and difficult situations – into opportunities for personal and spiritual development. We will explore meditation techniques that have been tried and tested for centuries and how they are relevant to our everyday experiences.

“This practice is extremely important. Those who engage in it successfully will never have to experience anxiety or discouragement but will be able to remain calm and peaceful in all circumstances.”

Ven. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

Meditation Class Format

GUIDED MEDITATION

Each class begins with guided breathing meditation to help let go of distractions and settle the mind into an experience of inner peace.

BUDDHIST TEACHING

The teacher will then give practical advice, based on the topic of the class, explaining how we can integrate Buddha's timeless wisdom into our busy daily lives.

DISCUSSION

The class will conclude with a second guided meditation to help us take the teaching to heart. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions.
