Monday Night Sangha

Every Monday 7.00 - 9.00pm.

Theme continuing until July: Transforming Self and World. 

The path of meditation and Buddhism is about change: how we can change for the good, and how we can change the world for the good. Practically, how do we do this, and how do we avoid the pitfalls? Come along and find out.

Saturday Sangha Mornings

Saturday 15th May 10.30am - 1.00pm. Open to All.

What did the Buddha say about...

...what we trust in our lives? What lets us down, and what doesn’t? What the Buddha said about ‘refuge’ – looking for what is truly to be relied upon.

With Maitrisiddhi.

Morning Silent Meditation

Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. 7.55 - 8.30am.

Meditating together in silence. For regulars.
