In Tibetan the word ‘meditation’ means ‘to familiarise’. In meditation we become familiar with positive ways of thinking and reduce the negative, harmful imprints in our mind utilising concentration, analytical and visualisation techniques. These classes are suitable for those wishing to learn to meditate as well as those who wish to develop their meditation practice in a group environment.

"Actually, watching television, which we all do, is a bit like meditating. When you watch television, you watch what’s happening on the screen; when you meditate, you watch what’s happening on the inner screen of your mind?where you can see all your good qualities, but all your inner garbage as well. That’s why meditation is simple.
The difference, however, is that through meditation you learn about the nature of your mind rather than the sense world of desire and attachment."
Lama Thubten Yeshe
