Description
“When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within.”
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso (How to Transform Your Life)
The real source of happiness is inner peace. If our mind is peaceful, we will be happy all the time, regardless of external conditions, but if it is disturbed or troubled in any way, we will never be happy, no matter how good our external conditions may be.
On this relaxed half-day retreat learn two guided meditations that can be practised by anyone. With regular practice, these meditations help us to experience mental clarity and inner peace by meditating on our mind itself. Through training in concentration observing our mind we can overcome distractions and come to experience for ourself the inner peace arising from the clarity of the mind.
Join us in person at Kadampa Meditation Centre Nottingham, Gedling House – the perfect way to experience the benefits of meditation on Saturday 12th September from 10am to 1pm.
A wonderful opportunity to relax in a beautiful, peaceful environment, discuss questions and enjoy refreshments between sessions.
