SUMMARY:Guelph Drop-in Class 7pm
DESCRIPTION:WHERE: St. Matthias Anglican Church, 171 Kortright Rd. W, Guelph    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.    More information on these classes can be found at Kadampa Meditation Centre Canada site.

SUMMARY:Prayers for World Peace 10-11:15am
DESCRIPTION:LOCATION: Kalpa Bhadra Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Downtown Guelph    COST: These prayers are offered free of charge. Chanted prayers include a brief, silent meditation. Everyone welcome.      “Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible. We all wish for world peace, but world peace will never be achieved unless we first establish peace within our own minds. We can send so-called ‘peacekeeping forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace cannot be imposed from outside with guns. Only by creating peace within our own minds and helping others do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world.” Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning classes include a short teaching, prayers for meditation (sadhana booklets are available if you like to chant along), relaxing and inspiring meditations, discussion and dedications for peace in our world. It is rare that we have the opportunity to listen to teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the pure intention to contribute to peace in our world by transforming our own mind into a source of peace and benefit for others.

SUMMARY:Stratford DROP-IN 6pm SAT
DESCRIPTION:WHERE: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington St – STRATFORD.     What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:Prayers for World Peace 10-11:15AM
DESCRIPTION:LOCATION: Kalpa Bhadra Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Downtown Guelph    COST: These prayers are offered free of charge. Chanted prayers include a brief, silent meditation. Everyone welcome.      “Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible. We all wish for world peace, but world peace will never be achieved unless we first establish peace within our own minds. We can send so-called ‘peacekeeping forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace cannot be imposed from outside with guns. Only by creating peace within our own minds and helping others do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world.” Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning classes include a short teaching, prayers for meditation (sadhana booklets are available if you like to chant along), relaxing and inspiring meditations, discussion and dedications for peace in our world. It is rare that we have the opportunity to listen to teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the pure intention to contribute to peace in our world by transforming our own mind into a source of peace and benefit for others.

SUMMARY:Stratford DROP-IN 6pm SAT
DESCRIPTION:WHERE: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington St – STRATFORD.     What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:Prayers for World Peace 10-11:15AM
DESCRIPTION:Location : Kalpa Bhadra Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Downtown Guelph  Cost: These prayers are offered free of charge  “Without  inner peace, outer peace is  impossible.

SUMMARY:Stratford GP 6PM
DESCRIPTION:Where: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington St – Stratford.     What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class. Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.    The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own. Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these mditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving. As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:Stratford GP 6pm
DESCRIPTION:WHERE: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington St – STRATFORD.     What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:Guelph 7-8:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Where:  Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph. What happens at a class? At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing      meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial      motivation for attending the class. Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of      Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion      and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the   Teacher    Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply   Buddha’s  advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies,   stories,  reasoning   and humor. The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the      teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning  to     practice it on our own. Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies. Ongoing practice Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue      to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If   we    put these methods into practice we will experience our mind   gradually    becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our    relationships   improving. As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s      books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives      us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by     engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Prayers for World Peace 10-11:15am
DESCRIPTION:Cost: These prayers are offered free of charge  “Without  inner peace, outer peace is  impossible. We all wish   for   world peace,  but world peace will never be      achieved unless we   first   establish  peace within our own minds. We can  send so-called     ‘peacekeeping  forces’ into     areas of conflict, but peace  cannot be     imposed from  outside with guns. Only by creating peace within  our own     minds     and  helping others do the same can we hope to achieve  peace  in    this  world.”     Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning  classes include a short teaching, prayers for meditation (sadhana booklets are available if you like to     chant  along), relaxing and  inspiring meditations, discussion and  dedications for peace in our  world.  It is rare that we     have the  opportunity to  listen   to   teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the pure intention to     contribute to peace in  our world by  transforming our  own    mind into a source of peace and benefit for others. Everyone is      welcome.

DESCRIPTION:Cost: These prayers are offered free of charge  “Without  inner peace, outer peace is  impossible. We all wish   for   world peace,  but world peace will never be  achieved unless we   first   establish  peace within our own minds. We can  send so-called     ‘peacekeeping  forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace  cannot be     imposed from  outside with guns. Only by creating peace within  our own     minds and  helping others do the same can we hope to achieve  peace  in    this  world.”     Ven Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning  classes include a short teaching, prayers for meditation (sadhana booklets are available if you like to chant  along), relaxing and  inspiring meditations, discussion and  dedications for peace in our  world.  It is rare that we have the  opportunity to  listen   to   teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the pure intention to contribute to peace in  our world by  transforming our  own    mind into a source of peace and benefit for others. Everyone is  welcome.

SUMMARY:Guelph 7-8:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Where:  Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing     meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial     motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of     Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion     and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the  Teacher    Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply  Buddha’s  advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies,  stories,  reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the     teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to     practice it on our own.  Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue     to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If  we    put these methods into practice we will experience our mind  gradually    becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our   relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s     books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives     us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by    engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Guelph 7-8:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Where:  Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing    meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial    motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of    Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion    and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher    Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s  advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories,  reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the    teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to    practice it on our own.  Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue    to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we    put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually    becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our  relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s    books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives    us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by   engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Prayers for World Peace 10-11:15am
DESCRIPTION:Location : Kalpa Bhadra Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Downtown Guelph  Cost: These prayers are offered free of charge  “Without  inner peace, outer peace is  impossible. We all wish  for   world peace,  but world peace will never be  achieved unless we  first   establish  peace within our own minds. We can  send so-called    ‘peacekeeping  forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace  cannot be    imposed from  outside with guns. Only by creating peace within  our own    minds and  helping others do the same can we hope to achieve  peace in    this  world.”     Ven Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning  classes include a short teaching, prayers for     meditation (sadhana  booklets are available if you like to chant along),     relaxing and  inspiring meditations, discussion and dedications for    peace  in our  world.  It is rare that we have the opportunity to  listen   to   teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning  with the  pure    intention to contribute to peace in our world by  transforming our  own    mind into a source of peace and benefit for  others. Everyone is    welcome.

SUMMARY:Guelph GP 1-2:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Where:  Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing    meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial    motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of    Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion    and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher    Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s  advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories,  reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the    teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to    practice it on our own.  Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue    to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we    put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually    becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our  relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s    books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives    us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by   engaging  in follow-up study

DESCRIPTION:Where: Blue Skies Yoga: 55 Victoria Street North, Kitchener.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing   meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial   motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of   Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion   and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher   Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the   teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to   practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue   to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we   put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually   becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s   books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives   us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by  engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Cambridge 7-8:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Location : Cambridge at the Centre for the Arts( in the Donaldson room )    Cost: Each class is $10. Class cards are also available: $35 / 5 classes. No one is ever turned away due to lack of funds.    The meditation classes are suitable for both beginners and experienced mediators. Everyone is welcome.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle,  relaxing  meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a  beneficial  motivation for attending the class.    Then the teacher  will give a practical teaching on some aspect of  Buddhist meditation  and practice. There is usually time for discussion  and questions and  answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher  Training Program  and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice  to our own daily  lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning  and humor.    The  session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take  the  teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning  to  practice it on our own.    Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice   Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then  continue  to train in these meditations and special practices on our  own. If we  put these methods into practice we will experience our mind  gradually  becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our  relationships  improving.    As all General Program classes are  based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s  books, the teacher will often reference  a particular section. This gives  us the opportunity to deepen our  familiarity with the topic by engaging  in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:Stratford 6-8pm
DESCRIPTION:Where: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington Street, Stratford, Ontario.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing   meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial   motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of   Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion   and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher   Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the   teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to   practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue   to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we   put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually   becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s   books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives   us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by  engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Elora drop in class 7-9pm
DESCRIPTION:Course : 3 part puzzle for joy    Topic : A wise view of reality    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing    meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial    motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of    Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion    and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher    Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s  advice   to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories,  reasoning   and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the    teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to    practice it on our own.  Afterwords, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learned some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue    to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we    put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually    becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our  relationships   improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s    books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives    us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by   engaging  in follow-up study

We all wish for   world peace,  but world peace will never be  achieved unless we first   establish  peace within our own minds. We can  send so-called   ‘peacekeeping  forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace  cannot be   imposed from  outside with guns. Only by creating peace within  our own   minds and  helping others do the same can we hope to achieve  peace in   this  world.”     Ven Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning  classes include a short teaching, prayers for    meditation (sadhana  booklets are available if you like to chant along),    relaxing and  inspiring meditations, discussion and dedications for   peace  in our  world.  It is rare that we have the opportunity to listen   to   teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the  pure    intention to contribute to peace in our world by transforming our  own    mind into a source of peace and benefit for others.

We all wish for   world peace, but world peace will never be  achieved unless we first   establish peace within our own minds. We can  send so-called   ‘peacekeeping forces’ into areas of conflict, but peace  cannot be   imposed from outside with guns. Only by creating peace within  our own   minds and helping others do the same can we hope to achieve  peace in   this world.”     Ven Geshe Kelsang Gyatso    Our Sunday morning classes include a short teaching, prayers for    meditation (sadhana booklets are available if you like to chant along),    relaxing and inspiring meditations, discussion and dedications for   peace  in our world.  It is rare that we have the opportunity to listen   to  teachings and practice meditation on a weekend morning with the  pure   intention to contribute to peace in our world by transforming our  own   mind into a source of peace and benefit for others. Everyone is   welcome.

SUMMARY:Children's Program 2-3pm

SUMMARY:Stratford 6-8pm
DESCRIPTION:Where: Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington Street, Stratford, Ontario.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing  meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial  motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of  Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion  and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher  Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice  to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning  and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the  teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to  practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue  to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we  put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually  becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships  improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s  books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives  us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging  in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Stratford 6-8pm
DESCRIPTION:Course: Destination~Permanent Happiness    Topic: “Supreme Good Heart."    Where:  Yoga Collective, 42 Wellington Street, Stratford, Ontario.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Kitchener 7:30-9:15
DESCRIPTION:Course: Destination~Permanent Happiness    Topic: “Is it possible to love anyone?”    Where: Blue Skies Yoga: 55 Victoria Street North. Kitchener, ON.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Guelph 7-9pm
DESCRIPTION:Course: Self-Esteem and Depression    Topic: Create Happiness    Where: Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph.    Cost:  Each class is $10. Class cards are also available: $35 / 5 classes. No one is ever turned away due to lack of funds.    The meditation classes are suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners. Everyone is welcome.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Elora 7-9pm
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Touching stillness    Where:  Elora Public Library, 144 Geddes Street, Elora.    Cost:  Each class is $10. Class cards are also available: $35 / 5 classes. No one is ever turned away due to lack of funds.    The meditation classes are suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners. Everyone is welcome.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study

SUMMARY:Guelph 7-9pm
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Our Precious Human Life    Where: Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph.    Cost:  Each class is $10. Class cards are also available: $35 / 5 classes. No one is ever turned away due to lack of funds.    The meditation classes are suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners. Everyone is welcome.    What happens at a class?  At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study

At the beginning of each class the teacher will guide a gentle, relaxing meditation in which he or she will help us to develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.  Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion and questions and answers. The teachers have all trained on the Teacher Training Program and are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.  The session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own.  Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students over tea and cookies.    Ongoing practice  Having learnt some methods for improving our mind, we can then continue to train in these meditations and special practices on our own. If we put these methods into practice we will experience our mind gradually becoming more peaceful, our problems diminishing, and our relationships improving.  As all General Program classes are based on Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s books, the teacher will often reference a particular section. This gives us the opportunity to deepen our familiarity with the topic by engaging in follow-up study.

SUMMARY:4-8:30pm Foundation Program Guelph
DESCRIPTION:Where: Kalpa Bhadra Buddhist Centre, 42 Quebec Street, 2nd floor, Guelph, Ontario.    Foundation Program    Buddhism teaches that to find lasting happiness and meaning in our lives we need to follow a spiritual path. To follow this path it is important to have a close connection with a qualified Teacher who can give us personal advice and encouragement, to listen to pure Dharma teachings and to be a part of a strong spiritual community. In this way we are able to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning of Buddha’s teachings, maintain a daily meditation practice that is both focused and powerful, and make genuine spiritual progress.    The Teacher  The Foundation Program is taught by our Resident Teacher Kelsang Yonten.    When is the class?  Class is on Sunday nights in two sessions. The first session is from 4 – 6pm and the second session is from 6:30 – 8:30pm. We have a half hour meal break between sessions when we share a potluck dinner.    How much will it cost?  The cost is $75 a month.    The Foundation Program includes free admission to General Program Classes at the Center and branches, weekend events and retreats at the Center and empowerments at half-price.    A unique study program  Through regular teachings and meditation, systematic study, and group discussion, the Foundation Program offers the same training followed by spiritual practitioners in an unbroken lineage dating back to Buddha Shakayamuni. In this way we can gain authentic experience of the Dharma while still maintaining our contemporary lifestyle. By studying on this program we shall gain great confidence in meditation – from basic techniques for overcoming our everyday problems to practices leading to unsurpassed happiness and permanent inner peace. Warm friendships develop as students inspire each other, sharing insights and experiences of the spiritual path.    What is the structure?  The secret of the Foundation Program’s success lies in the manageable commitment made by the student and in the clear structure of study. Students sign up to study a book or part of a book, agree to attend every class, learn the material, and to take a test at the conclusion of the study.  If for a suitable reason a student is not able to attend the class in person, he or she agrees to catch up by listening to a podcast of the class. There is also a commitment to participate in at least one chanted prayer session at the Center per month. Generally, the students take turns to putting up the shrine offerings and setting up the meditation room on the day of their class. In this way they learn about the rituals associated with Buddhist practice.    What happens at a class?  Prior to class, students study an assigned portion of the text, usually a few pages long, and memorize the essential points. The class begins with chanted prayers and guided meditation. The teacher then reads the assigned selection from the book while giving commentary to the text. The students then divide into pairs to discuss the material. The teacher and students conclude by deciding what to meditate on in the next class and how to practice during the coming week.    What books are studied?  The purpose of the Foundation Program is to provide a systematic presentation of particular subjects of Mahayana Buddhism to enable practitioners to deepen their knowledge and experience of Buddhism.    The program comprises the following five subjects, based on Buddha’s Sutra teachings and the corresponding commentaries by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso:    1. The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment, based on the commentary Joyful Path of Good Fortune  2. Training the Mind, based on the commentaries Universal Compassion and Eight Steps to Happiness  3. The Heart Sutra, based on the commentary Heart of Wisdom  4. Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, based on the commentary Meaningful to Behold  5. Types of Mind, based on the commentary Understanding the Mind    We are currently studying Joyful Path of Good Fortune. By studying and practicing Joyful Path of Good Fortune we gain the ability to put all Buddha’s teachings of both Sutra and Tantra into practice. We can easily make progress on and complete the stages of the path to the supreme happiness of enlightenment. From a practical point of view, the Stages of the Path is the main body of Buddha’s teachings, and the other teachings are like its limbs.
