The Transformative Power of Patience
Meditation Workshop
@ Burnley KBC
Saturday 11 April, 10am – 1pm
In-person
In this course we will explore Buddhist teachings and meditations, which are practical methods for practising patient acceptance. Through improving our wisdom we can effectively work to change things for the better from a mind of peace and love, rather than from annoyance or anger.
“Patience is a mind that is able to accept, fully and happily, whatever occurs. It is much more than just gritting our teeth and putting up with things. Being patient means to welcome wholeheartedly whatever arises, having given up the idea that things should be other than what they are. It is always possible to be patient; there is no situation so bad that it cannot be accepted patiently, with an open, accommodating, and peaceful heart”. – Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Suitable for everyone, both beginners and those wishing to improve their meditation practice
Refreshments are available in our World Peace Café during the course.
The cost of the Meditation Workshop is £15 (Monthly Members £5, FP Monthly Members £0).
