Calm Abiding Meditation in Port Macquarie

Enjoy this weekend retreat learning the fundamentals of Buddhist Meditation from a practiced meditation master!

Meditation has a proven record in its ability to improve health, awaken happiness and give a clear perspective on life. It enables you to identify the real causes of unhappiness and recover from stress, anxiety and tension.

Calm Abiding meditation, also known as Shamatha, is not a specifically Buddhist technique of meditation but is common to other spiritual traditions as well. Single-pointed concentrating on the breath or other suitable object of meditation is a natural process that helps you to focus better on ordinary tasks and make you become more relaxed and peaceful.

This Buddhist technique of mindfulness has attracted much interest from modern scientific fields such as psychotherapy and cognitive behaviour as well as sport training.

To learn to meditate you need an experienced teacher and a well defined path. Lama Choedak Rinpoche leads regular courses and residential retreats. He has undertaken intensive three and a half year solitary meditation retreat and was a close student and received detailed meditation instructions from the great Kyabje Choegye Trichen. Rinpoche also has over thirty years experience teaching in the West.

Bookings can be made via email or phone, below. Payment can be made on the day.

 

Please consider bringing a plate of food to share with everyone too!
