Becoming a Buddha: Four Myths of Meditation Course

A five week course starting on Wed 16 April

Buddhist Meditation is primarily concerned with seeing things as they really are. The suffering we experience and cause others is a result of not seeing clearly in this way. If we did see the Truth of things we would become a Buddha: endlessly energetic, wise, and compassionate. This five-week course will introduce four myths - vital ways of moving towards the Truth.

Spring Retreat: Mind, Reactive and Creative

Our mind can function in two ways: reactively and without awareness, or creatively with awareness. The purpose of human life is to move from reacting habitually and automatically to responding creatively and wisely. On this ten-day retreat we’ll explore how to practically make the transition from reactivity to creativity inside and outside meditation.

We will be guided by Sangharakshita's Know Your Mind - our own teacher's exploration - and Mind in Harmony, the commentary upon it by Subhuti, the LBC's President.
