❀️ HAPPY VAJRAYOGINI DAY! ❀️

❀️ The month of January is a special month in the Kadampa calendar during which we emphasise the practices of Heruka and Vajrayogini, the principal Highest Yoga Ta**ra Deities of modern Kadampa Buddhism. These sublime practices were given to us by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso and were his heart practices. Through his kindness we have the opportunity to attain the supreme happiness of enlightenment through following the practices of Vajrayogini.
❀️ Today, the tenth day of the month, is Vajrayogini Day. Kadampa Centers worldwide will be making offerings and engaging in prayers to Vajrayogini.

πŸ’–NEW MEDITATION SERIES BEGINS 12 JANUARY! πŸ’–
FINDING HAPPINESS FROM A DIFFERENT SOURCE with Kelsang Yonchen
We are back to a full programme next week, with a brand-new series of meditation classes! 🌟

Where do you think happiness comes from?

We usually believe that our happiness comes from external conditions such as food, friends, jobs, houses, technology, money, adventure and so on. However we can have all these things and still not be happy – still feel like there is something missing in our lives.

In this inspiring series of classes we will learn how practical meditations and methods for developing and experiencing non deceptive happiness – our own peace of mind.

Also on Tuesday evenings in Aberdeen & Inverness and Friday mornings in Inverurie.

Finding Inner Peace in Aberdeen

Kadampa Meditation Centre Aberdeen was founded in 2018 by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso for people in the North of Scotland to have the opportunity to learn about and practice Buddha’s teachings and have access to the methods for attaining the supreme inner peace of enlightenment.

To fulfill this aim we are creating a peaceful city sanctuary located in the heart of Aberdeen on King Street - a modern Kadampa Buddhist Meditation Centre. Due to the current Covid-19 restrictions we are currently offering meditations and classes online with our Resident Teacher, Buddhist nun Gen Kelsang Tubchen. Gen Tubchen has been teaching internationally for the last 10 years and her meditations are very contemplative, practical and peaceful.

Everyone is welcome :)
