Sangha Nights in 2025: Hearts that Heal

Wednesdays, 7pm to 9pm, in person and on zoom

Sangha Nights are every Wednesday evening (except holidays), 7pm to 9pm, In Person and On zoom, from Feb 5 to Dec 17. .

Hearts that Heal

Throughout 2025 our theme is Hearts that Heal: exploring the power of the Dharma to heal our hearts and to heal the heart of the world.

Our framework for this exploration will be the Six Paramitas of the Bodhisattva Path. Paramita can translate as “perfection” or “that which has gone beyond (duality or delusion)”. The six paramitas are six liberating qualities that heal through taking us beyond suffering to freedom. These qualities are cultivated by Bodhisattvas dedicated to ending suffering for themselves and all beings, but importantly they are also accessible and beneficial practices for all of us, just as we are right now. They open us to Bodhicitta – the heart of awakening, that is always present but usually hidden.

We encourage you attend these Wednesday classes regularly if you can, as this will give you a deeper experience of the healing and empowering qualities of these teachings. But of course you are welcome to drop in as and when you are able. Sangha Nights are open to anyone interested in connecting around Buddhist Practices.
