Current & upcoming class topics

    Kadampa temples are a meditation we can walk inside. In these classes we will explore the meaning of this holy object then, if we wish, we can visit the temple in person and experience it for ourselves in November. (See our brochure for details) This is like the way spiritual realisations develop, first understanding by listening and contemplating, and then experiencing directly in our heart.

    10th: A Pure Land on Earth - What the Temple Represents

    17th: The Outer Symbolism of the Temple
