Weekly Meditation Wednesdays

July 29 @ 12:00 am - October 9 @ 11:59 pm

Weekly Meditation Wednesdays
In-person and Online at E-Vam Institute
6pm – 6:45pm

 

These sessions are for everyone and are an opportunity to come together to practice mindfulness meditation.

Whether you are new to meditation or an experienced meditator, regular meditation practice is encouraged in Buddhism. The weekly practice offers the opportunity to begin or renew your practice in a welcoming and supportive community environment. With meditation instructions provided by Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche IX, these gatherings provide a supportive space to reinforce our motivation for meditation practice by practising alongside others! 

Newcomers are extremely welcome. This series is by donation.

 

Meditation Quote by Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche IX

The Meditation of tranquility
teaches us how to become settled and calm
and to concentrate
so that our minds are not always reaching out,
grabbing onto this and that,
and becoming scattered.

We learn how to focus our minds,
to become centred.
We also learn how to be present
and not dwell on our past achievements,
failures,
regrets or guilt
associated with all kinds of things
that we may have done or failed to do.

Likewise, we learn how not to dwell on
or feel anxious about the future:
what we would like to achieve,
the possibility of not being able to achieve our goals,
the imminent obstacles that we can foresee,
and so on.

We learn how to be in the present
and remain focused.
If we indulge in all these mental activities without focus,
we lose our perspective
and start to react to things more and more
from habitual response
rather than from clear understanding.

Join us this Wednesday for a special tea and discussion session.* 
After meditation, we’ll have a relaxed group discussion – an open space to ask questions, share reflections, and explore aspects of practice.

Afterwards, you’re warmly invited to stay for tea and informal conversation with fellow meditators, both new and experienced.
*Tea and discussion sessions are held on the first and last session of each 6 week period.
