Meditation instructions in the West are often adapted to reflect our contemporary society so, despite the huge growth of meditation teaching in recent years, pure instructions remain somewhat rare. Yet, even in our modern times, nothing remains more profound and useful than the simple instructions handed down since the time of the Buddha.
As one of Lama Yeshe Losal Rinpoche's closest and longest-serving students, Ani Lhamo is well placed to pass on the pure essential points. This weekend, she takes us through the fundamentals - from sitting posture to applying meditation in daily life - helping us to gently build up a practice that is effective, enjoyable and pain-free.
The course is suitable for all though particularly ideal for those who are entirely new to meditation and Buddhism.
