Regular Practices
The Buddha taught that meditation, combined with listening to teachings and reflection, leads to the ultimate liberation from all suffering and to awakening. Meditative practices can be silent, recited, or chanted, with or without instruments.
The courses in the program at Dhagpo Kundreul Ling introduce us to these various meditative practices. It is then possible to practise them regularly, either alone or in a group, at home or in a centre. At Dhagpo Kundreul Ling, they are open to everyone.
