DHARMA FOR DAILY LIVING PART 2

“Now more than ever we need to anchor ourselves in that peace beyond opposites – beyond hate and love’’  Donal Creedon

We will, during this final term of the year, look at ways to lighten our load, as we navigate the travails of our daily lives. We will find that through diligent study, contemplation, and meditation, we are able to travel the path in a way that is beneficial for both ourselves and others.

I look forward to taking this journey with all who wish to join!

Everyone is welcome.

Cost: Members: no cost; non-members R60 per evening

 “Regard all dharmas as dreams” Atiśa

We’ll be looking at bringing stability and insight to our lives through meditation, contemplation and study. Enquiry into our everyday experience will be the backbone of our classes.

The weekly classes will include meditation, discussing various aspects of what it means to implement basic sanity into our lives through the Buddha dharma and enquiring into the human condition.

Sunday End of the Month Retreat

9am - 1pm
Led by Barry Stott

Next date: Sunday 24 Nov 2024

A wonderful opportunity to come together and meditate as a sangha. These morning retreats take place on the last Sunday of the month whenever possible – an opportunity for meditators to deepen their meditation practice.

Practitioners of all levels are welcome and the morning alternates between easy going 30-minute meditation sessions, walking meditation and a tea break. We often finish with a short, guided compassion practice.

Noble silence is observed throughout the morning but discussion on aspects of meditation or your observations are welcomed.

Cost: Non-members R60, Members no cost.
