What we’re about
Meet like-minded people interested in meditation near you! Learn how to meditate or deepen your current meditation practice. A trademark of the meditations we emphasize is the ease in which they can be used both "on the cushion" and in our daily lives. Each meeting will include practical meditation, and a talk on how to reduce stress and other problems encountered in daily life and how to increase mental and physical well-being. There will also be plenty of time to discuss the ideas presented. Although the meditations and talks are based on Kadampa Buddhist philosophy, you don't need to be a Buddhist to enjoy this group. Kadampa Buddhism stresses a spiritual path of individual transformation and to look within ourselves for the inner peace and happiness we seek. Everyone is welcome!

Meditation has become widely recognized as a simple but very effective method to calm the mind and let go of stress. It gives rise to an experience of inner peace and wellbeing. On this Friday Night Lecture, Gen Namdrol will introduce meditation techniques that can be practised by anyone. Join us and learn the methods you need to begin and then maintain an effective meditation practice.
Among the many benefits, meditation has the power to overcome our stress, increase our happiness and our ability to focus and stay present in the moment. We can also enjoy more harmonious relationships through knowing how to develop a calm, spacious, positive mind.
“So much of the stress and tension we normally experience comes from our mind.”Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
