Sangha night

An opportunity for friends to share and deepen their practice

Tonight Padmapushpa will speak about the first ethical precept, kindness versus harmfulness. Using examples from her own life, she will talk about this key concept and how it underpins all the other precepts.

For the month of July, Sangha night will have a particular focus on Buddhist ethics, and the relationship to karma and conditionality. Rather than judging actions as "good" or "bad", the invitation in Buddhism is to look at what motivates our behaviour and to determine whether it is skillful or unskillful. Then we set about training ourselves to think and behave in ways that affirm our interconnectedness with all living beings. When we act in this way, we find ourselves living with greater peace and harmony. Our lives become more meaningful with greater feelings of connection, satisfaction and happiness. Rather than feeling restricted, we experience true freedom.

Wednesday nights are a place for people who have attended our foundation courses to come together and celebrate community as well as an opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the Buddha's teaching.
