WHAT WILL I LEARN?

This workshop is an opportunity to deepen your understanding that things do not exist outside of the mind but are just mere appearances, like dreams.
At this workshop, Gen Tsalden will explain Buddha’s most profound and transformative teaching; emptiness – the true nature of reality. With this knowledge, we can solve all our problems, find freedom from all limitations, and be of the greatest benefit to the world.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT?

There are two sessions in each workshop. They consist of an introduction, simple breathing meditation and teaching and conclude with a contemplative meditation on the teaching from that session.

Buddhist meditation involves staying alert and keeping our back straight, so we sit on chairs for the duration of the course. There’s no need to bring anything, although you may wish to bring some water and a jacket. Refreshments are provided in the break session.

Attendees come from all walks of life and there’s no need to have any meditation experience as all meditations are guided.  Everyone is welcome.
