July classes at Atisha Buddhist Centre

School's out and everyone's out enjoying the fine weather. What a perfect time to explore meditation at Atisha Buddhist Centre this July.

On Tuesday nights we're offering the same course (Meditation for Relaxation) at two locations: Pape Library from 7 - 8pm and at Atisha Buddhist Centre from 7 - 9pm. Both courses (July 7, 14, and 21) will introduce several breathing meditations and explore the purpose and objectives of meditation. The courses are supported by the Meditation for Relaxation CD which allows for practice at home.

Course fee is $30 for three nights, or $10 for each evening. Suitable for beginners and experienced meditators.The Pape Library course will be given by Loretta Castellarin and the Tuesday night Atisha Centre course by Tom Sepp.

On July 9th and 16th we'll continue our Thursday night course at Atisha Centre (7 - 9pm) while emphasizing how to maintain and develop a meditation practise. We'll get out the meditation cushions and look at how to begin our meditation practise, and where it might lead. Course given by Tom Sepp, Education Program Coordinator. Cost: $10 per evening. Eveyone welcome.

All courses are based on teachings and books by the Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, Spiritual Director of Atisha Buddhist Centre. 

We also continue with our increasingly popular Meditations for World Peace at 10am on Sundays until July 19th. Come enjoy a relaxing meditation. Afterwards have a cup of coffee or tea in our new peace garden - a wonderful way to meet other meditators, and the usual flock of birds, squirrels and other animals who have become regular visitors to our garden.

As always, feel free to call or send us an email if you have any questions about our courses. Hope to see you soon.
