Tonglen Meditation with Alan Muller

In tonglen practice, we visualise taking in the pain of others with every in-breath and sending out whatever will benefit them on the out-breath. In the process, we become liberated from age- old patterns of selfishness.

The hour-long session will consist of:

20 minutes – guided calm abiding meditation

20 minutes – guided walking meditation

20 minutes – guided Tonglen meditation

There is no charge for this session, but dana for the teacher and the centre is welcome.

Alan Muller took refuge in 1997 with Akong Rinpoche. In 2003, he completed a one-year closed retreat under the guidance of Lama Yeshe Rinpoche at Samye Ling Monastery in Scotland. During this period, he took novice monk vows. Alan remained a novice monk for six years and now presents courses and retreats as a layperson.
