Courses with Gen Kelsang Pagmo

The Good, the Bad and the Buddhist - 10th May 2008

The main obstacles to our spiritual practice are our delusions. Delusions are just bad mental habits, and like all mental habits they can be broken. Due to our habitual ways of discriminating we
divide the world into good, bad and neither. From this all our problems arise.

However by sincerely engaging in spiritual practice we can reverse our mental habits and gain mastery over our mind. This day course will help us gain a deeper understanding of how we can take control and develop a true positive mental attitude.

Meditation Workshops - Halfday Courses

The purpose of meditation is to make our mind peaceful and calm. If our mind is peaceful we shall be free from worries and mental discomfort, and so we shall experience true happiness; but if our mind is not peaceful we shall find it very difficult to be happy, even if we are living in the best conditions.

If we train in meditation, our mind will gradually become more and more peaceful, and we shall experience purer and purer forms of happiness. Eventually we shall be able to stay happy all the time.

Dates:
23rd February
12th April
5th July
6th September
15th November

In each workshop we will spend half a day becoming familiar with a meditation ideal for daily practice. The days are designed to be a practical introduction, and no experience of meditation is necessary.

Time: 10am - 12.30pm
Fee: £7
