Regular Wednesday evening meetings:
|
Our Sangha meets every Wednesday at Willicombe Park. Arrival time is 7.15 pm in order to allow for a prompt start at 7.30 pm. The meetings finish around 9.30pm.
These evenings feature meditation, talks, discussion and ritual. More information can be found on our Weekly Programme page Our Wednesday Sangha nights are primarily for our regulars so we do not teach mediation at these meetings. If you are new to mediation please book on one of our monthly Saturday afternoon beginners meditation classes in order to learn our two meditation practices before joining our Wednesday evening Sangha nights.

a Buddhist might respond
to the most pressing problems of our age,
especially climate change, war, and consumerism
