This class is designed as a direct follow-on class to our introductory courses. We explore ways of deepening our meditation practice and introduce fundamental and basic teachings from the Buddhist tradition. We investigate how to apply these teachings to our everyday lives. The class usually involves meditation, a short presentation and the opportunity for discussion.
Lunchtime Meditation
Tuesdays 1.00 - 2.00pm
This drop-in class offers an opportunity to meditate at lunchtime with others. The meditation will be led with some instruction and will last approximately 40-45 minutes.
Mitra Dharma Study Groups
Mondays 7.30pm - 9.30pm
A mitra is someone who has decided that they are a Buddhist and that, for the foreseeable future at least, they want to practise Buddhism within the Triratna Buddhist Community - the tradition that the Newcastle Buddhist Centre is part of. The Monday class provides a structured programme of study for mitras, and attendance is by invitation only.
