Four Ways to Change the Mind – Part 1
Guided Contemplations on The Four Ways to Change the Mind
These contemplations focus on the Preciousness of Human Life, emphasising the rarity and potential of a human birth, Death and Impermanence, highlighting the transient nature of all things; the Law of Karma, recognising the inevitable cause and effect of actions; and the Disadvantages of Cyclic Existence, promoting a turning away from the suffering inherent in rebirth.
There will be a brief introduction to each contemplation but the emphasis will be on doing the contemplations.
Part 2 will be in January 2026
10 – 11:00 Intro and guided contemplations on the Preciousness of Human Life, and Death and Impermanence
Cost
There is no charge for these talks, but donations are welcome. Dharma centres, which offer teachings and meditation practices that benefit all beings, are largely sustained through the generosity of their supporters. Donations play a crucial role in ensuring the continuation of these teachings, providing resources for the upkeep of the centre, supporting teachers, and enabling the running of retreats, courses, and community activities.
