Sangha night

"Awareness is Revolutionary" series - Awareness of reality

This evening we have the last talk in our series on the theme of awareness. Throughout the series we have considered things it would help to be more aware of, and also things that we should expose ourselves to less. We have also learned that sometimes what we think we are aware of is not actually accurate, and maybe in a sense, do not actually exist at all.

In all of this, there are different levels of knowledge to be considered. At some practical level it is necessary to allow into one's worldview some things that one could not say exists in an absolute sense.

Nevertheless, consideration of the nature of reality (as opposed to the nature of perceptions) is an important practice - one of the three legs of the three-fold path of ethics, meditation and wisdom. Each leg requires effort and attention for the achievement of enlightenment, and they each interrelate.

Mary Anna is the brave sangha team member who volunteered to focus on the "wisdom leg". Come along and hear her always interesting approach to a very tricky topic. Meditation, tea and connection are also on offer.

Wednesday nights are a place for people to come together and celebrate community, deepen their knowledge of Buddhism, and their understanding of how to practice it. They are designed for those who have been coming to the centre for a little while. If you have had minimal contact with us, you are best to attend our Intro courses on Tuesday evenings first.
