A friendly and supportive environment for learning and putting into practice the teachings of the Buddha. Classes in meditation, yoga, emotional balance and overcoming destructive emotions, introduction to Buddhism, regular teachings with touring Tibetan lamas, yoga and vegetarian cooking. The centre is open to everyone with an interest in making their life happy and meaningful. There is no need to be a Buddhist to benefit from the courses on offer, and we encourage questioning and open dialogue.
We have an extensive beginners curriculum that runs in both the mornings and evenings. We welcome beginners, and there is always time for questions. We suggest you start with a beginner's course or a meditation evening, and then later hop into the very popular, in-depth, 3-year Discovering Buddhism course. Pujas (offering ceremonies) and retreats help to integrate practice and theory. We also offer weekly yoga classes, comprehensive home study courses on CD, non-religious courses on ethics, emotions and mindfulness, and regular social and community events.
We have an extensive lending library for members, and a Dharma Shop with books, statues, prayer flags and other practitioner needs.
Langri Tangpa Centre was founded in 1982, and is affiliated with the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT). Our principal teachers are HH the Dalai Lama, Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche.
