Saturday 10th October, 2:30 pm Free of charge. In person only. This will be the first time that we will mark Rinpoche’s birthday since his passing into Parinirvana earlier this year. You are invited to join us for a simple lamp offering and quietly sit in the shrine room, or chat with members of Rinpoche’s sangha in the dining room or garden. It is also a wonderful opportunity to come and spend time in retreat here. We very much hope you can join us.

Sunday 1st November, 10:30 am & 2:30 pm Free of charge. Lunch is available at extra cost but should be booked in advance with the secretary (£7). Meditation Sunday – These sessions are suitable for meditators of all levels, with guided meditation from experienced sangha members, and are offered free of charge. We hope you can join us. Shamatha (or ‘Shi-ne’) is the foundation for all further meditation practice. It is designed to create the calm, stable, supple mind necessary to work with other meditation techniques, and it is a practice in its own right.
