The Transforming Power of the 5 Buddha Mandala – With Shuddhakirti
To grow and develop we need to gradually, in our own time and our own way, integrate the different often conflicting sides of ourselves.
Contemplating The mandala of the Five Buddha’s, a powerful symbol of the Enlightened mind, is a very beautiful and potentially awe-inspiring way to do this. With their compassionate qualities, beautiful colours, graceful benign figures, particular emblems, myths and stories they can help us to transform our lives.
During the course we will explore those qualities of the Buddhas’ and our responses to them through short talks, meditation, mantra chanting and other practical activities.
Tuesdays from 4 June – 9 July
Sessions run from 7.15-9.15pm with a tea break in the middle.
Doors open at 7pm, feel free to arrive from then for a drink and a time to chat a bit more.
Once you have completed our two Introductory Courses, you can continue your exploration in Going Deeper. You don’t need to think of yourself as a Buddhist, just someone who’s interested.
Each series, on a particular theme, is designed to support you in deepening your understanding and practice of Buddhist ideas and meditation. Going Deeper can help you apply Buddhist teachings in your life, developing greater mindfulness, positive emotion and wisdom. With greater awareness and kindness we can transform ourselves and the way we relate to other people and the world, making our lives more honest, meaningful and enjoyable.
All our classes and events are run by donation, there is no fixed fee. Please watch this video to understand more deeply what that means.
