Buddhism can be described as a path, one that ascends towards a goal in stages. But what does it take to climb that path? What skills, what powers, what faculties will you need to make the ascent? In this Going Deeper course, you will learn all about what such a journey requires. Join us to discover the Five Spiritual Faculties of faith, energy, mindfulness, concentration and wisdom.
The Five Spiritual Faculties with Subhamati and friends
Tuesdays 23 July – 27 August
Sessions run from 7.15-9.15pm with a tea break in the middle.
Doors open at 7pm, feel free to arrive early to settle in.
All our classes and events are run by donation on a give what you can basis. There is no fixed fee.
‘By donation’ is a radical economy, read more about it here.
Once you have completed our two Introductory Courses, you can continue your exploration in Going Deeper. You don’t need to think of yourself as a Buddhist, just someone who’s interested.
Each series, on a particular theme, is designed to support you in deepening your understanding and practice of Buddhist ideas and meditation. Going Deeper can help you apply Buddhist teachings in your life, developing greater mindfulness, positive emotion and wisdom. With greater awareness and kindness we can transform ourselves and the way we relate to other people and the world, making our lives more honest, meaningful and enjoyable.
