Wednesday 6 pm. Free. Use visualisations of the Buddha or an aspect of the Buddha in order to create the causes for our own enlightenment, and we recite mantras, prescribed syllables, to protect the mind from our attachment, anger, ignorance and so forth. While we recite the mantra, we think and visualize in a beneficial way to develop constructive habits in the mind. During the month we rotate between different deity practices - Chenrezig, Medicine Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha, Tara.

Covers the Mahayana path with uncommon clarity, and is for this reason much quoted by many great Tibetan masters. It is considered to be a monument in the Indian buddhist tradition, and we are very fortunate that Geshe-la kindly has suggested to teach on this text. These classes are suitable for all and can be joined at any time.

Thursday Evenings: 7.15pm to 9.30 pm.

This will suit those who might be interested in the meaning of those very foreign words we recite together at the beginning and at the end of every teaching of our dear Geshe Pema Tsering. We will also be going through some other key words that, I hope, will allow students to at least recognise which topic the Geshe is approaching at a given time.
