WE ARE CURRENTLY ON A TERM BREAK. CLASSES RESUME 22 AUGUST
Due to the NKT International Summer Festival in the UK, we are having a three-week break in our weekly classes. Enjoy the break, take part in the Summer Festival online if you can – it’s really wonderful – and we’ll see you again soon.
NEXT COURSE:
The Missing Peace in a Puzzling World (STARTS 22/8/22)
In this uncertain modern world, full of dangers, how do we find real happiness? How can we develop real hope for our future, and inspire others to do the same? In these classes learn how Buddhist wisdom offers us a vastly different view of our world and the things that happen to us, and how, through understanding and controlling our own mind, we can be happy no matter what is happening around us.
ABOUT THE CLASSES
Everyone is welcome. Classes include guided meditations and Buddhist teachings that are very practical and easily applied to help solve daily problems and experience more peace of mind. There is no need to book or bring anything, or to start at the beginning of the course – you can drop-in any week. At the end of each class there is an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have about the topic or about meditation. We hope to see you soon 🙂
Cost:$14 (Centre members free)
