Buddhist Retreat

Learning to Love ~ Developing a Good Heart

Relaxing Retreat: Escape for a Weekend Away Fri 4 Oct – Sun 6 Oct

with Kadam John McBretney & Kadam Ai Peng McBretney

This retreat is held with Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre

Everybody welcome to this weekend retreat. Through the guided meditations you will develop the precious mind of love, and take this beautiful mind home with you.

Why is it so important to develop a good heart? It’s because love overcomes all our painful feelings and their causes, the delusions, including anger and attachment, and it gives us harmonious relationships and spiritual growth. Love makes our mind peaceful, relaxed and joyful. It is the best solution to our daily problems, and is the source of all our future happiness and good fortune. Learning to cherish others will lead us into the path to the supreme happiness of enlightenment.

As Geshe Kelsang Gyatso says, “A good heart always gives good results.”

Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to solve your problems by developing a good heart.

The teachers, Kadam John McBretney and Kadam Ai Peng McBretney, each has 30 years’ experience of teaching modern Buddhism and meditation.

Enjoy the peace cafe and 38 acre grounds of Tara International Kadampa Retreat Centre in the company of people who care.

Wonderful oasis of calm in a hectic world. What I've learnt here has helped me and those connected with me, in every aspect of life. The resident teacher, Ai Peng, is knowledgable, helpful and kind, and displays a perfect example of a Buddhist Practitioner. Well worth a visit.

A lovely, peaceful place where it was fantastic to think in a different way and try and clear my mind. Not something I would usually have done in the past - but would definitely come back again when solace is needed or after a busy week.

We attended the teaching 'Dealing with Loss and Change'. It was a wonderful, meaningful experience on death, and one that we will remember and treasure always.

I’ve been visiting this centre for many years now. To say the teachings are life-changing is a huge understatement! Practical advice on dealing with every day problems, all given in a clear and relatable way. I am so grateful for this centre and this Buddhist tradition. read less
