This integrated process is for people interested in the foundations of Buddhism and its relationship to meditation & life. It consists of three events, starting with a weekend at BMIMC, and two half-days in Sydney. Meditation will be central, but explored in its Buddhist context as a foundation for living. The format will allow us to experiment with integrating meditation into our everyday lives, while appreciating the Buddha’s core messages. This process is open to complete beginners and more experienced meditators.
