SUMMARY:Tibetan Buddhism Class
DESCRIPTION:Students are asked to join The Buddhist Society as members if they wish to attend this class \nJoin here \n\nThursdays in term time at The Buddhist Society and online at 6.30pm UK \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://thebuddhistsociety.zoom.us/j/268852436\nMeeting ID: 268 852 436 \nThis class is usually on a Thursday evening at 6.30pm. \nThis class is for members of The Buddhist Society \nThe class begins with a meditation\, followed by the presentation and discussion of instructions and philosophical topics from a text. For this term\, the text we will be following is:  Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche’s ‘Luminous Clarity: A Commentary on Karma Chagme’s Union of Mahamudra and Dzogchen.’\n \nFor Buddhists\, Enlightenment is not some vague esoteric idea but a precise and attainable goal and success in the achievement of it\, like success in any venture\, depends upon following the steps laid out by those who have already attained it. These teachings will be presented\, discussed and meditated upon in the traditional sequence\, as methods for investigating and transforming one’s attitudes\, developing positive qualities and striving to realise Enlightenment for the benefit of all sentient beings. \nThe meditation is on the nature of the mind. This is practised in all Buddhist traditions\, including Theravada\, Zen and particularly in Tibetan Mahamudra and Dzogchen. \nThe nature of mind has certain unique properties as an object of meditation. The mind is doing the meditation\, and it meditates on its own nature\, to the point of experiencing that nature like water poured into water. In other words\, this is a special practice for achieving non-duality of subject and object. \nIn the meditation on the nature of mind in the Tibetan tradition presented in these classes\, one first practices calm abiding meditation on the conventional nature of the mind. This means concentrating single-pointedly on clarity and awareness. It’s a bit like a mirror becoming self-conscious. \nBased on that\, one uses the stable mind thus developed\, to develop insight into the ultimate nature of the mind\, its lack of inherent existence\, and thereby come to a much deeper experience of the groundlessness of one’s being. The mirror recognises its own emptiness. \nThere are methods taught for unifying these two stages of the meditation. This union of calm abiding and penetrative insight is the goal of the practices to be learned and engaged in during these classes. It finally leads to nirvana – the cessation of suffering and its causes. \nThis course will be led by Roy Sutherwood\, a former Director of Jamyang Buddhist Centre\, London and a recognised foundation level teacher for the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT). Roy is a senior student of Geshe Tashi Tsering\, currently Abbot of Sera Mey Monastic University\, Karnataka\, India and has studied under masters of Buddhist philosophy and meditation for many years. He also teaches on the Society’s Introduction to Buddhism course and on Mahayana Buddhist topics at the Society’s annual Summer School.

SUMMARY:Basic Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays at 6.30pm in term time – online only\n \nThis online class will be led by Colin Ash with Richard Bober and Ajahn Barry Subhaddo on Thursdays at 6:30pm \nThursdays at 6:30pm in term time – newcomers welcome – no booking required – free to attend\n \nhttps://thebuddhistsociety.zoom.us/j/84706391957?pwd=ODA4MGpSRWlHeU9oSWtNcWtzdXhEUT09 \nMeeting ID: 847 0639 1957\nPassword: 597963 \nSpecial Guest Teachings 2025: \nAjahn Barry Subhaddo 17th July \nStudents are asked to join the online class around five minutes before it starts to get settled in \nBased on the practice of mindfulness as taught by the Buddha\, this class meets every Thursday evening. The class usually has a good balance of experienced meditators and complete beginners. There are no entry requirements other than an open mind. However\, some prior knowledge of the Buddha’s teachings can help clarify whatever one may experience in meditation. Also\, the focus of the class is very much on meditation as an integral part of the Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path. The best way to find out about meditation is not by reading books but by direct\, first-hand experience. \nBelow is the usual schedule for the Basic Meditation class which we hope to return to after travel restrictions have been lifted. \nHeld under the guidance of Colin Ash\, this class is based on the practice of mindfulness as taught by the Buddha. The class welcomes visiting teachers: please telephone the Society for details. \nThis class is free to attend and no booking is required\, but we encourage visitors to join as members as well as make donations to support our wonderful free classes and courses. \nClass documents: \nGenerating the Mind of Enlightenment
