Study and Practice Details

Last year, with Lama Öser’s guidance, we began studying ‘The 37 Practices of All the Bodhisattvas’ by Gyalse Togme Zangpo. This traditional text covers the practicalities of how to put our wish for enlightenment into practice - what we need to do, how we need to act. We provide a digital copy of the relevant verses.

We hope that Lama Öser will soon be able to join us for some sessions. Our sessions open with guided meditation, provide time for discussion in small groups, and conclude with the practice of The Treasury of Blessings, which includes resting meditation.

We resume our sessions after an Easter break, on Monday 17th April at 19.00 BST. We look forward to welcoming you online and, as soon as possible, to Gomde Lindholme Hall in person. To make sure you receive details and the zoom link, please contact chris@gomde.uk

Creating Space Audio, Erric Solomon

Creating Space is a guided meditation exercise that encourages us to feel the spaciousness of the sky within us. This exercise comes from the book Radically Happy (by Phakchok Rinpoche and Erric Solomon). It’s a meditation practice that can be practiced at any moment, anywhere. The link below provides some background to the exercise and a link to an audio by Erric Solomon.
