Clive Holmes returns to Samye Ling to present this course on Buddhist Refuge. Suitable for beginners and those new to meditation, this weekend also includes a valuable opportunity to take refuge, or to renew vows, with Lama Yeshe Losal Rinpoche.
Compassion
The focus of the weekend will be on how to bring more compassion and understanding into our lives.
Four Immeasurable Qualities
Especially in these difficult times, we can find ways to increase the four immeasurable qualities of calm, kindness, compassion and joy. How to awaken courage and resilience will also be included.
Finding Genuine Refuge
Refuge will be explained and on Sunday morning there will be a refuge ceremony, including an opportunity to renew vows, with Lama Yeshe Rinpoche.
If you would like to take refuge please send an email to reception@samyeling.org.
Meditation
Instructions will be given on walking meditation and how to visualise. Time will be used beneficially by meditating together.
Attendance notes
Requirements: No prior experience is necessary; please bring an open mind.
Course Fee: There is no course fee for this weekend. However we always make an offering to the course tutor, on behalf of everyone who attends. If you wish to contribute, please ask at Reception.
