Getting to Know Buddhism
September 6 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
with Alan Muller
Introduction to Buddhism
The basic principles of Buddhism will be explained, with time set aside for contemplation and meditation. There will also be an opportunity to discuss the topics covered and ask questions.
This session is suitable for everyone, whether you are completely new to Buddhism or have many years of experience.
Each month, we will explore new topics and introduce meditation practices that you can continue at home.
Time: 10:30 to 11:30 AM
Date: 6 September 2026
We will look more deeply into topics such as the Four Foundations of Mindfulness and the Three Jewels. Once again, it won’t just be theory, but also practical meditations that you can take away and practise at home.
Date: 9 August 2026 Introductory Session
