This is a wonderful chance to enter an authentic Modern Buddhist Centre, to see qualified statues of Buddha, to ask questions, and to try simple breathing meditation. We strive to make the visit very fun, enjoyable and lighthearted, whilst still meeting all of your educational requirements.
We also offer to visit your school or group. You can learn about many aspects of Buddhism and Buddhist practice, suitable for everyone irrespective of religious view or practice. Our teachers are familiar with the Key Stages of the Religious Education ‘Agreed Syllabus’ for the local Education Authorities and we can tailor your visit to your exact requirements. Our teachers are both male & female, lay (wearing regular clothes) and ordained (wearing traditional robes), exemplifying how Buddhist practice is about training our mind and improving our compassion and wisdom. You can ask us any questions you wish whilst you are here.
The lineage of the Kadampa tradition has been passed down from teacher to teacher from Buddha Shakyamuni to Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, a fully accomplished meditation master and founder of the New Kadampa Tradition. Geshe Kelsang has written over 20 books on Buddhism including 4 recent books specially designed for children and established more than 1300 Buddhist temples and centres dedicated to world peace.
