๐Ÿค Happy Mother's Day ๐Ÿค

"We came into this world naked and empty-handed and were immediately given a home, food, clothes and everything else we needed. While we were a helpless baby our mother protected us from danger, fed us, cleaned us and loved us. Without her kindness we would not be alive today."

From The New Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

Don't miss this upcoming day course with special guest teacher from Ireland Kadam Adam Starr

LETTING Go of Perfect

Saturday 14th March

10am-4pm

Join us for an insightful day course with special guest teacher Kadam Adam Starr and learn how to take the pressure off yourself โ€“ by letting go of perfect.

We may feel weโ€™ll be truly happy and content once we finally get things just right in our lives. When we find the perfect partner, the perfect job, or the perfect home, or we achieve the perfect level of health, wealth, and so on.

Yet in truth itโ€™s possible to be truly at peace and happy right here and now. In particular, when we let go of the idea that we need everything to be perfect in our lives, we discover a deeper peace and happiness in our day to day lives.

Weโ€™re so delighted to welcome Kadam Adam Starr to KMC Birmingham to teach this course Kadam Adam is a very experienced and popular meditation teacher and the Resident Teacher of Tara Kadampa Meditation Centre in Dublin, Ireland.

Through talks and guided meditations, which are suitable for everyone, we will explore:

Where our need for perfection comes from, how it limits our sense of freedom and joy in life, and how to let it go.

How true peace and happiness starts with learning how to be at peace with the imperfect nature of ourselves, others, and life today, combined with the recognition of our potential for inner development and growth.

How from this place we can all build a life of deep inner peace, joy, and fulfilment, even when things donโ€™t go perfectly day-to-day.

This course is suitable for people new to meditation as well as those with experience.

The course will consist of three sessions, with guided meditations and advice for a happy life.

There will also be opportunities to relax in the breaks and ask questions.

Everybody welcome

Who We Are & Our Tradition

Kadampa Meditation Centre Birmingham is a member of the New Kadampa Tradition-International Kadampa Buddhist Union, a Buddhist tradition with no political affiliations that follows the pure Mahayana Buddhist teachings of Atisha (AD 982 โ€“ 1054) and Je Tsongkhapa (AD 1357 โ€“ 1419), as presented for contemporary society by modern-day Buddhist master, Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.

The New Kadampa Tradition (NKT) is an international association of Mahayana Buddhist study and meditation centres founded by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso to offer the practical wisdom of Kadampa Buddhism to the people of the modern world. The NKT follows the pure tradition of Mahayana Buddhism handed down in an unbroken lineage from Buddha Shakyamuni through the ancient Kadampa teachers Atisha and Je Tsongkhapa and introduced into the West by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Rapidly growing, our Kadampa community is an international family, offering support, inspiration and encouragement for this joyful and profound spiritual path at centres around the world.
