Sitting with Silence – A Weekend Meditation Course
February 22 @ 10:00 am - February 23 @ 12:30 pm

“Many’s the person who’s missed the opportunity to say nothing… and lost much because of it.”
This weekend meditation course, led by Lama Zangpo, will give an overview of the method of calm abiding, and insight meditation, together with practical practice instructions. There will be guided meditation sessions and time to ask questions.
Lama Zangpo’s meditation journey began in 1996 when he met Lama Yeshe Rinpoche at Kagyu Samye Dzong Johannesburg and became a resident volunteer. His spiritual path took him from the Holy Isle to Arran, and later to Nepal, where he pursued intensive study and practice under the guidance of Drupon Rinpoche at the Thrangu Sekhar retreat. He has also supported communities in South Africa, the Congo, and most recently in Glasgow, where he now resides, helping to nurture and grow the local Buddhist community. Lama Zangpo is known for his compassionate approach and understanding of Buddhist meditation, making this weekend accessible for both beginners and those with more experience.
There is no charge for this weekend’s course. Donations to support the centre are welcome.
