Sangha Night

Our usual meeting place is The Quaker/Friends Meeting House, 21 Thorpe Road, Peterborough, PE3 6AB. 

Here's what happening over the next few weeks; 

• Tuesday 27th January; Mark will lead an evening on The Parable of The Rain Cloud. 
• Tuesday 3rd February; Dayanita (Female Order Member) is visiting us from Cambridge to lead the evening. 
• Tuesday 10th February; No meeting as it’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month. 
• Tuesday 17th February; We will have an evening exploring ‘What is a mitra?’ and an opportunity for current mitras to re-affirm their commitment as part of the ritual in the 2nd half of the evening. 
• Tuesday 24th February; Introduction to our new series looking at the 3 Laksanas

Please note that we lock the front door at 7pm for security reasons.

The class begins with an introduction to the evening and usually a short breathing space. The first half of the evening we usually share and discuss a teaching of the Buddha or our Buddhist practice. After a short break the second half is devoted more to meditation. The instruction given is tailored to the needs of those attending, so if you are new to meditation we can offer full instruction and guidance, whereas if you are an old hand you can have the freedom to explore your meditation practise at your own pace. Sometimes during this section we look more closely at particular aspects of meditation or engage with some Buddhist ritual. We usually end the evening with a mantra.
