MONDAY NIGHTS Presented
by Denis Marsh
Monday Nights From 8.00 pm
Introduction to Buddhist Philosophy and Meditation
If we don’t utilise this most precious human life to at least create the causes to obtain another fortunate human rebirth in our immediate next life, we have lost a great opportunity.
During the November meditation evenings, we will discuss how we can enrich our lives through engaging in virtuous practices and avoiding non-virtue.
In the words of the great Buddhist master, Shantideva: “So if, when having found leisure such as this, I do not attune myself to what is wholesome, there could be no greater deception, and there could be no greater folly.”
Sessions run for one hour and include guided meditations, a talk and questions. A facility fee of $5 goes towards the running of the Centre.
Everyone is welcome; there is no need to book.

Lama Zopa said: My point here is for you to understand what we are doing and what you are helping with. This is so that you can rejoice. It really is unbelievable, incredible, what you are helping with, and this creates so much benefit for the world and for sentient beings. This actually creates the cause to liberate so many beings. This is an incredible opportunity for you to rejoice, and if you rejoice and then dedicate the merits, it is amazing.
