About the Centre

Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre (KMC) is the main north London Buddhist Centre of the New Kadampa Tradition. It has run meditation classes throughout London for over 25 years. As a charity, its purpose is to help people to achieve inner peace and happiness through meditation.

About the Classes

The cause of happiness and the solution to our problems do not lie in knowledge or control of the external world. Happiness and suffering are feelings - parts of our mind - and so their main causes are not to be found outside the mind. If we really want to be truly happy and free from suffering we must imporve our understanding of the mind.

This 5-week course offers a deep insight of the nature and the power of the mind, and shows how an understanding of its nature and function can be used practically in our everyday experiences to imporve the qulaity of our lives.

*These weekly drop in classes run in 16 venues continuously throughout the year.

Topics

• Week 1 - What is the mind?

• Week 2 - How the mind works

• Week 3 - Dealing with painful feelings

• Week 4 - Creating happiness within

• Week 5 - Taking control

FAQs

What will each session consist of?

Each session will include a combination of teachings and guided meditations with an opportunity to discuss during the break time.

Do I need to bring anything or wear anything special?

No. You can choose to sit on chairs, or cushions if you prefer to sit cross-legged. You don’t need to bring anything else with you, but some people like to take notes during the session, so feel free to bring a paper and pen.
