A day of Buddhist meditation to settle the mind

Details

This day is ideal for those who have some experience of meditation and who wish to deepen their understanding and practise in a beautiful space.

######

Each session of meditation will be lead by students of Lama Jampa Thaye, using his book, 'Diamond Sky: Preparing for Vajrayana' as a guide. The day will include instruction on calm-abiding meditation, where we learn to settle the mind until it rests naturally in stillness, along with how to address common problems encountered when practising such meditation.

Sessions will take place at the times below and will feature two periods of meditation, with instruction given at the beginning and at the mid-way point:
10.30-11.30
tea break
12.00-13.00
lunch break
14.00-15.00
tea break
15.30-16.30

Everyone is welcome to come to any or all of the sessions.

In-between sessions there will be a chance to relax in the Centre – the shrine room, garden and social spaces will be all be open.
Refreshments will be available, with a shared lunch (please bring some food to share if you wish).

There is no charge, but donations for the upkeep of the Centre are very welcome. You can donate on the day or online here.
