In the busy world we live in, we can all at times have to deal with different forms of stress, including negative thoughts and emotions which can affect our health and our quality of life. Whatever problems life throws at us, the practicing of meditation has been proven to have significant benefits with improving our feelings of calm, happiness and of well-being.
We regularly welcome people from all walks of life and ages to our centre, where they practice Dhammakaya meditation- a Buddhist meditation technique with an ancient history.
In this retreat you will learn about the Dhammakaya meditation technique. Its simplicity, originality and effectiveness has made the Dhammakaya method greatly cherished in its native Thailand and is also growing fast in popularity internationally.
What makes Dhammakaya meditation different to conventional meditation is that it teaches about the centre of the body as the natural home of the human mind, as well as the inner gateway to enlightenment. The closer your mind is to its natural home, the closer you are to the natural state of supreme bliss. This inner happiness is self-sustainable and can be practiced regardless of your personal circumstances or background.
Dhammakaya meditation also cleanses the mind, meaning that people who meditate regularly become gentler, kinder and more mindful towards other people. This results in greater harmony in our lives and contributes towards a more peaceful society.
Anybody who would like to benefit from all these things for their personal development or would simply like to de-stress naturally should definitely try Dhammakaya meditation. In addition to this, we can deepen our spiritual awareness by meditating, as we take time to look within and discover our inner strength and the power to achieve inner peace.
