What's on

Come along after the lunchtime class to work alongside the Caretakers in looking after the fabric of the centre. A wonderful way to give back, and contribute practically to the LBC!

Chi Kung is an ancient Chinese system of exercises that help us contact and harness energy in the body, and can be a great way to prepare for meditation. Join us for a beginner-friendly session led by Serene. No experience necessary.

How does a Buddhist vision, path and community take root? This is the second of three conversations with Subhuti, as part of his visit to the LBC, in order to explore these fundamentals. Subhuti is one of Sangharakshita’s leading disciples. He spent many years learning from him and working with him. He’ll talk personally about his own Buddhist path, his relationship to Sangharakshita, and the creation of what Sangharakshita has called a ‘New Society.’

You can either learn to meditate from scratch and develop the foundations for a daily practice or join the regulars to build on what you know and discover how to apply Wisdom reflections in meditation.

The Buddha taught that the root cause of our suffering is craving. Nowadays one of the most striking ways to see this truth is paying attention to our relationship to our phones. In this six-week course, discover ancient practices and modern tools that help us to use technology more wisely and clear the way for a more meaningful life.

This week-long series of guided meditation happens at the start of every month. An opportunity to meditate with others and ask questions about your practice.
