Tonglen Meditation Day
CANCELLED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
Sun 24 May
10am - 4pm
The practice of giving and receiving, where we aspire to transform the suffering of others using a combination of visualisation, metta and the experience of the breath. Tonglen is the central practice within the larger framework of the Tibetan buddhist practice of lojong, the 7-point mind training, the gradual letting go of an ego-centred worldview in order to bring about the arising of the Bodhicitta, the complete turning of the heart and mind towards enlightenment.
Suitable for regular meditators, experienced in our two meditation practices, the Mindfulness of Breathing and the Metta Bhavana

Silent Retreat Day - Opening the Door into Silence
CANCELLED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
Sun 31 May
10.30am – 4pm
We rarely have time to experience our vibrant, vivid aliveness, free of our “to do” lists and social obligations. Silence can be refreshing, rejuvenating and relaxing. Step through the Buddhist Centre door into a silent day, where we will explore the spaciousness inherent in silence. The day will include periods of meditation, reflection, relaxation and a sound bath. For those familiar with our meditation practices.
