Monday Morning Meditation - Margate
Every Monday 11.00-12.45
Join us every Monday for an open morning at the Margate Arts Club to learn Buddhist meditation, deepen your existing practice and meet like-minded people. Open to all, no experience required.
We alternate between introducing the two main meditation practices in our tradition, the Mindfulness of Breathing and the Metta Bhavana (Loving Kindness).
Find us at the Margate Arts Club, 276 Northdown Road, Cliftonville, Margate, CT9 2PT
Classes run every Monday from 11.00-12.45. Please note doors will close promptly at 11:15AM in order for meditation to begin, so please arrive before this time.
All of our classes are by donation and have no set fee; we ask £5 for attending but encourage everyone to give what they can.
This helps us cover rental costs and other fees - for more information on how we use this money click here
Monthly Puja in Margate
First Monday of Every Month 1.30pm -3.00pm
We also hold a monthly Puja and Sangha Afternoon at Margate Arts Club.
This will take place on the first Monday of each month, from 1.30PM to 3:00PM. Each afternoon will include some Buddhist teaching followed by a Puja (ritual) practice, offering another opportunity to practise together and connect with the local Sangha.
Monday Morning Meditation will continue as usual from 11:00AM to 12:45PM, including time for a cuppa. There will then be a break for lunch before the afternoon session begins.
The Morning Meditation and Afternoon Puja are separate drop-in sessions, so you are very welcome to come to either one or stay for both! We suggest a donation of £5 per session, or £8 if you attend both, but please do not let cost prevent you from coming.
The afternoon session may be especially welcome for anyone who finds evening events difficult to attend, would prefer not to travel at night, or would simply like another opportunity to explore Buddhism and experience Puja. No previous experience is needed. Whether you are interested in learning more about Buddhism, already enjoy Puja, or simply want to spend some time practising with others, you can be assured of a warm welcome.
Venue remains the same: Margate Arts Club, 276 Northdown Road, Margate, CT9 2PT
Everyone welcome aged 18+.
