    Mon 1st: The way things really are

    Buddha said that all phenomena are mere appearances to mind, totally dependent on the minds that perceive them. Their ultimate nature is emptiness. How can we understand this, and what does it mean for us?

    Mon 8th: The emptiness of our body

    When we become familiar with meditation on the emptiness of the body, our grasping at our body will be reduced, we will experience far less suffering, anxiety and frustration in relation to our body, our physical tension will diminish and our health will improve.

    Mon 15th: Mind is the nature of emptiness

    By contemplating, ‘All phenomena that appear to my mind are the nature of my mind. My mind is the nature of emptiness,’ we will eventually gain an undefiled wisdom that directly realises the emptiness of all phenomena.

    Mon 22nd: How to stop grasping at I

    The object we grasp at most strongly is our self or I. By understanding and meditating on the emptiness of our I, this grasping will reduce and eventually cease altogether. Then we will be permanently free from all suffering.

    Mon 29th: Freedom from extremes

    Learn eight special meditations that help us to reduce and eventually eradicate eight different aspects of our self-grasping.

The Teacher for the Worcester class

The Worcester ‘Meditation & Daily Life’ classes are led by our resident teacher, Gen Kelsang Khechog.

Known for his thoughtful nature, Gen Khechog presents Buddha’s teachings with relatable clarity, showing how to connect these beautiful meditations with the realities of modern daily life.

The venue

The Worcester class is held at The Hive public library, Sawmill Close, The Butts, Worcester WR1 3PD.

We are normally in room 5. There are lots of helpful staff - please ask for directions if you’re there for the first time.

The nearest car park is the Cattlemarket (the view in the picture here is from this car park), though it is a bit cheaper to park in Croft Road car park, just over the road. Crowngate car park is recommended if there has been sustained heavy rain, as flooding can effect the other two.
