LETTING GO ~ DEALING WITH LOSS & CHANGE
SAT 24 FEB
with Special Guest Teacher – Kadam John McBretney
Resident Teacher of Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre.
Losing the people and things that we love and dealing with unwanted changes in our lives is an experience that we often find deeply painful. Although we long to find lasting pleasure, comfort and security in other people and things, in the end none of them can stay with us forever.
On this course we will learn how, through meditation, we can develop a special wisdom that will help us to deal with the inevitable winds of change and loss in our lives and always remain calm and happy. We can become a strong, wise and peaceful person for the benefit of ourself and others.
You will learn how to:
- Let go of the things you cannot control
- Transform difficulties in a positive way
- Remain peaceful and benefit others
Led by special guest teacher, Kadam John McBretney.
Includes teachings and guided meditation, with time for Q&A.
Everyone welcome!
