Sangha Morning
A class at the Buddhist Centre with led meditations of the two main practices, talks and discussion around a variety of Buddhist topics.
Suitable for all levels of experience.
Starting on Thursday 5th September our new series will be engaging in a detailed exploration of the Mindfulness of Breathing practice. We will be looking at both the purpose and practice of the Mindfulness of Breathing.
During the series there will opportunities to discuss your meditation practice and to look at this fascinating practice from a number of different perspectives.
As usual with our Practice Night class, experience of our meditation practices is required, however no experience of puja is needed.

Absolutely. Though of course you'll get those most out of the class by attending the whole series, there's no need to wait until the start of the next series if you want to start coming.
No - just arrive at the Buddhist centre in time to begin promptly at 7pm.
The class is best suited for those who have attended an entire series (or most of a series) on Newcomers Night or have completed an Introductory Course.
Since the meditation practice is usually without instruction, and the topics covered are quite in depth, this class is not well suited for newcomers.
We don't charge for our classes, and the team are not paid for their time. We simply ask that those who are able to do so make a donation to the centre to help us cover our running costs.
All are welcome at our classes however if you are under the age of 18 please contact us in advance of joining the session (contact@colchesterbuddhistcentre.com)
