Intro to meditation and Buddhism

Online class

Vairocana Buddha turning the wheel of the Dharma

As lockdown has continued for so long, we're now offering our usual intro class online (albeit in a slightly shorter format). The first half of the class (approx 30 minutes) introduces a particular Buddhist theme or teaching. In the second half, we introduce one of our two foundational meditation practices.

Tonight, we explore what makes the Auckland Buddhist Centre different (if anything) in the Buddhist world. We'll also continue our exploration of the mindfulness of breathing meditation.

This class is the place for newcomers to the Auckland Buddhist Centre to learn meditation and the basics of Buddhism.

This a 10-week rolling series of introductory themes and meditation instruction. You can start any Monday night. If you've signed up to this rolling programme at the centre, these modified classes during lockdown don't count towards your 10 weeks. In other words, you can pick up where we left once lockdown is over. But we'd love to see you at these sessions too, to help keep your momentum going!
