Weekly Classes - Kadampa Meditation Centre Brisbane

Weekly Meditation Classes

Meditation & Buddhism

Kadampa Meditation Centre Brisbane is a modern meditation space located in the heart of Spring Hill. Our meditation room is carpeted and soundproofed, with air conditioning and purified air. Seating is available on comfortable chairs. The Centre provides a comfortable and relaxed environment in which people can discover the benefits of meditation and modern Buddhism for themselves. Everyone is welcome!

Drop-in General Program Classes

Our weekly meditation drop-in classes are taught by qualified Buddhist teachers, and are very easy to understand and apply to our daily lives. The classes are suitable for both beginners and more advanced practitioners, and emphasize how to use meditation and subsequent practices amidst the busyness of modern, daily life. The union of Buddha’s teachings within our daily life is the essence of Kadampa Buddhism. Everybody welcome.

Resolving Relationship Difficulties

Buddha taught special methods for dealing with difficult conversations, relationships and situations. Even a slight understanding of these methods can make a significant positive difference to our handling of challenging situations and their results. These powerful tools, including the practice of meditation, can help us deal productively – even happily (yes, this is possible) – with difficulties.

Instead of feeling anxious, defensive, angry, depressed or overwhelmed, the practice of meditation can empower us with the skills we need to deal with conflict and confrontation with clarity and confidence.

At these weekly drop-in classes, you will learn how to stop feeling dragged down by difficulties and leave with the practical tools you need. The classes are self contained so you can join anytime. No experience needed. Everyone is welcome.

No need to book. Just drop in!

January Meditation Challenge: Six Habits of Happy People

Happiness is something that each one of us has the potential to experience, but often our habitual ways of thinking take us in the opposite direction. In six topics over three weeks, we’ll learn critical lessons about some of the habits of happy people that will enrich our life’s experience.
We will explore meditations and ways of thinking that uplift the mind. By carrying these into our day we can maintain a light, joyful attitude whatever life throws our way.
Evening classes will run on Mondays and Wednesdays; daytime classes will run on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Take the challenge to start 2024 with great habits that can last a lifetime.

Class schedule:

Week 1 | Class 1 (Mon 8 & Tues 9): Contentment – ‘When we are enjoying internal peace and happiness our craving for external sources of pleasure naturally declines and it is easy to remain content.’

Week 1 | Class 2 (Wed 10 & Thur 11): Acceptance – ‘Patient acceptance is often thought to be a weak and passive response to problems we have neither the power nor the courage to solve. In reality, however, being patient is far from being passive.’

Week 2 | Class 1 (Mon 15 & Tues 16): Gratitude – ‘If we recognise and appreciate the good qualities, especially the great kindness, of other living beings we will naturally cherish them and want to repay their kindness.’

Week 2 | Class 2 (Wed 17 & Thur 18): Joy – By learning to rejoice we can share everyone’s happiness.

Week 3 | Class 1 (Mon 22 & Tues 23): Generosity – ‘from giving comes wealth’ or ‘generosity is the main cause of great resources.’

Week 3 | Class 2 (Wed 24 & Thur 25): Wisdom – ‘… there is no greater method for experiencing peace of mind and happiness than to understand and meditate on emptiness.’

Foundation Program: How to Understand the Mind

️ Thursdays 7 – 9pm

Membership

Teacher: Gen Kelsang Ani

What does the foundation program involve?

The Foundation Program (FP) provides a special opportunity to deepen your understanding and experience of Buddha’s teachings. Joining FP involves participating in all the study and discussion classes and taking an exam at the end of each section of the book. Each study class consists of chanted prayers, guided meditation, teaching and discussion.

Monthly membership of KMC Brisbane is required while studying FP. The cost of this is $100 per month, which also enables you to attend all the general program classes, workshops and retreats held at the Centre.

About the book being studied

“We often say, ‘My mind, my mind’, but if someone were to ask us, ‘What is your mind’, we would have no correct answer. This is because we do not understand the nature and function of the mind correctly.” Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
This book offers us deep insight into our mind and shows how an understanding of its nature and functions can be used practically in everyday experience to improve our lives.

Taking and keeping these precepts is a special purification practice. Buddha realized that all living beings’ suffering comes from their previous negative karma, and so he taught special practices to purify it.

The special Guru yoga practice of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra, which also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path to enlightenment. Offering to the Spiritual Guide, or Lama Chopa in Tibetan, is a special Guru yoga of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra. It was compiled by the first Panchen Lama, Losang Chokyi Gyaltsen, as a preliminary practice for Tantric Mahamudra. The main practice is meditation on reliance upon our Spiritual Guide, but it also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path (Lamrim) and training the mind (Lojong), as well as both the generation and completion stages of Highest Yoga Tantra. By relying on our Spiritual Guide as one with Je Tsongkhapa, our compassion, spiritual power, and especially our wisdom will naturally increase. A complete commentary to this practice can be found in Great Treasury of Merit. See more details • •
