Weekly Meetings

Local Centres meet every week for a short talk or video, with opportunity for questions, followed by a 30 minute guided meditation. You are welcome to stay for an informal get together afterwards. The Centres stock Diamond Way Buddhist books, meditation booklets and magazines. Diamond Way Centres have a democratic structure and function through unpaid, voluntary work on the basis of friendship and idealism. They are financed mainly with the help of voluntary membership contributions and donations. The members share the responsibility for guiding meditations, answering questions and giving teachings.

Newcomers are welcome, and there is no charge.
