Meditation is an inner science. By comparison with outer science, which for all its great benefits, brings many dangers and conflicts, inner science brings only peace and never any danger.
In this talk you will learn:
- Why meditation is an inner science
- How to develop a positive, peaceful state of mind
- How to increase your confidence that happiness is possible
The inner science of meditation is geared towards fulfilling our deepest wish, which is our wish for happiness. In this meditation course, learn how we can apply the practice of meditation and Buddhist psychology to our life, and thereby discover real happiness from within our own mind.
No meditation experience needed – Everyone is welcome!

General Program (GP) classes are suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. While classes are given in a series around one specific theme, they are drop-in in nature and can be taken individually, as each class topic is self-contained.
The classes are designed to help those looking for Buddhist wisdom to help with stress relief and relaxation, as well as those interested in exploring the nature of the mind, and pursuing the Buddhist path.
Classes explore the basic framework of Buddhist teachings and meditation and explain how to use Buddha’s advice in our daily lives to solve our problems. All General Program classes are based on commentaries by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
A typical class is 1.5 hours and consists of a guided relaxation meditation, a teaching based on the meditation topic, and final contemplative meditation. Chairs and cushions are provided by the Center. No special clothing is required, and there is no physical exercise, yoga, or stretching involved.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of belief; you do not need to be Buddhist to attend.
