DAYTIME Course:
Exploring Buddhist Practice

The Buddha discovered the path to true happiness 2,500 years ago  and now people in the West are benefitting more and more from his  practical advice. Join us on this new course which, over 13 weeks, will explore practical ways to calm our busy minds and change our lives for  the better. 

Surprisingly, this doesn't mean 'becoming religious' but rather,  exploring how we create our own pain and learning different ways of  dealing with the difficulties in our lives.

The course will include: training in mindfulness through meditation,  exploring how we can be kinder to ourselves and others, the  importance of ethics and friendship, understanding myth and ritual,  and learning about the Buddhist concept of death and rebirth.

This course is open to everyone over 18. There is no pressure to become a Buddhist - this course is simply intended to help you live  your life in a more peaceful and fulfilling way. 

A book of the course by Vajragupta is also available from the centre for £12.99

DONATIONS: York Buddhist Centre has no outside income or support and no one is paid. These classes are given freely in a spirit of friendship. However we do have rent to pay and utilities and other running costs and we could not meet these without the generous support of those who use our centre. So, if you can, we ask you to make a donation either when you book or each week when you attend.  We suggest £10 each week or around £125 for the whole course but please give more or less according to your means.
