SUMMARY:Getting to Know Buddhism
DESCRIPTION:with Alan Muller \nIntroduction to Buddhism \nThe 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. \nThis session is suitable for everyone\, whether you are completely new to Buddhism or have many years of experience. \nEach month\, we will explore new topics and introduce meditation practices that you can continue at home. \n\nTime: 10:30 to 11:30 AM \n\nDate: 6 September 2026\nWe 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. \n\n\n\nDate: 9 August 2026 Introductory Session\n\nNo charge for these sessions\, but dana for the facilitator and centre would be appreciated. Please also bring some tea treats to share.\n\n\nAlan 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.
