Buddhist Meditation Classes In Durham

The Durham group meets on Wednesdays at 7.30pm to around 9.00pm (with breaks over Christmas and Easter periods and continuing to the end of June)

Each class consists of a talk, and perhaps a discussion, then a guided meditation, which teaches step by step way of developing greater calm, inner strength and awareness through giving attention to the flow of the breath. No previous experience in meditation is needed. After the first week, there is the opportunity for one to one discussion with the teacher on the application of the method. While it is preferable to come to the class from Oct 14th, you can join later, too.

We meet in Alington House, which is not far from the Market Square. Go up Saddler Street towards the Cathedral, but don't then take the road that branches off this to the Cathedral square; Alington House is a white fronted building on the left, about 10 yards after the road up to the square has branched off.

Up to Christmas, we meet in room  3, and after Christmas in room 5. Both are on the first floor, reached by a staircase at the end of the long entrance corridor. Room 3 is on the left at the top of the stairs. For room 5, turn right at the top of the stairs, then left at the end of the short corridor.

We meet Oct 14 - Dec 16, then Jan 20 - March 17, then April 21- June 23. You can usually park on the Cathedral square, Palace Green, but otherwise in the underground car park near the market square.

Cost: £3 per week.

There is another class nearby in Sunderland, which meets on Thursdays at 5pm.
