Programme – Spring 2012

“The gift of learning to meditate is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this life. For it is only through meditation that you can undertake the journey to discover your true nature, and so find the stability and confidence you will need to live, and die, well.”  Sogyal Rinpoche

Turning Suffering and Happiness into Enlightenment

Tuesday evenings 19h45-21h45 

This introductory course begins on Tuesday January 17th

We all want to be happy. But often the relentless pace and challenges of life make it impossible to know where to look for happiness. Through the wisdom of meditation, however, we can find peace and contentment.

This course on Turning Suffering and Happiness into Enlightenment features teachings to help bring perspective and understanding to any difficult situation we might encounter.

All are welcome to attend. The night includes meditation instruction, video teachings and time for discussion. It is particularly suitable for those who would be relative newcomers to Buddhism and meditation.

Fee: €10 per night/€6 concession

Ground, Path, Fruition

Wednesday evenings 19h30 - 21h30

Recommences on Wednesday 18th January.
This is a continuation of the course that began in the Autumn term but those who have previously attended Rigpa introductory courses and who wish to deepen their understanding of the Buddhist teachings are welcome to join.

Fee: €10 per night/€6 concession

Lunch-time Meditation

Wednesday 13h10 -13h50

The lunch-time meditation sessions will resume on Wednesday 11th January.

This is an opportunity to take a break from the busyness of the day and spend some time in silent mediation. A short evocative video teaching may also be played to create the atmosphere for meditation practice.
