The Buddhist Way of Loving Kindness
‘We are all interconnected in a web of kindness from which it is impossible to separate ourself. In fact, every happiness there is in the world arises as a result of others kindness.’ Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche

During this inspiring and transformative course, we will explore how we can find authentic confidence through kindness and discover the true joy of harmonious relationships, inner peace and happiness. Discover how developing minds such as gratitude, patience and love we can learn to identify and eliminate negative thought patterns towards others and learn to think positively about them and draw out their good qualities and happiness.

In these difficult and uncertain times, it is possible to gain confidence with kindness. By looking for kindness we develop a warm heart and feel close to others and we naturally want to help them. So many good qualities arise from looking for kindness around us and being kind to others. During this six week course you can learn to meditate, develop your inner peace and learn practical methods on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Buddha’s teachings on the kindness of others in busy daily life. This will give us great confidence and hope in what seems like a hopeless world. You can attend on a drop in basis or book the whole course in advance and get a discount
