Cost: Free-of-charge for the Public Talk on January 11.
$15 per class, or $65 for the 5-class series that starts on January 18.
In these meditation classes, you will learn the foundations of Buddhist philosophy and meditation practice, which can help us maintain a positive perspective on life and approach everyday challenges with greater clarity and calm. These teachings are based on the book “How to Transform Your Life” by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
The classes offer step-by-step guidance on the Buddhist path to inner peace in a way that is accessible and practical for everyone, regardless of background or experience.
These classes each include two guided meditations and a practical talk. These are drop-in classes, so you can attend any or all of them.
After each class, there is time for Q&A. No experience of meditation is necessary. Everyone is welcome!
There will be a free introductory Public Talk on Sun Jan 11, from 10:00-11:15am, called "What is Modern Kadampa Buddhism? Finding Peace in the Digital Age".
In this talk, Adele will share a Buddhist perspective on how to develop our capacity to find genuine peace and contentment while living in this ever-evolving digital age. Discover how to create an inner space of calm through the power of your own thoughts, and how to live with technology without being ruled by it.
