Geshe Kelsang Gyatso has designed three special spiritual programmes for the systematic study and practice of Kadampa Buddhism that are especially suited to the modern world – the General Programme, the Foundation Programme and the Teacher Training Programme.
Classes will re-start on the 30th January 2012
The General Programme provides a basic introduction to Buddhist view, meditation and practice. Each class is self contained and suitable for beginners and more experienced practitioners alike.
See 'Meditation Classes' for when and where.
The Foundation Programme provides an opportunity to deepen our understanding and experience of Buddhism through a systematic study of five subjects.
We are currently studying the book Eight Steps to Happiness. Please speak to the Education Programme Coordinator to enrol.
Classes are on Tuesdays, 6.30pm - 10pm.
Foundation Programme classes don't run during term breaks. Classes will still run during TTP retreats.
The Teacher Training Programme is designed for people who wish to become authentic Dharma teachers. In addition to completing the study of twelve subjects of Sutra and Tantra, the students will complete a series of retreats, and observe the basic Buddhist precepts for keeping pure moral discipline.
