A Special Study & Meditation Class
Study the book Joyful Path of Good Fortune
Monday Evenings at 7.15 pm – 9.15 pm
With Resident Teacher Kadam Chris Heyes
The Foundation Programme is a specially designed study class that functions to increase our understanding and deepen our experience of Buddhist meditation.
“The purpose of meditation is to make our mind calm and peaceful, 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 very best conditions. If we train in meditation, our mind will gradually become more and more peaceful, and we shall experience a purer and purer form of happiness. Eventually, we shall be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstance” Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
If you wish to go deeper in your understanding and practice you can join the Foundation Programme (FP). FP is a fully structured study programme designed by Venerable Geshe-la to enhance our understanding, experience, and practice of meditation, giving us great confidence to solve all our problems and experience deep and lasting happiness. You can join at any time and receive great benefits. The study class is open to everyone.
