Meditate in Guelph
Join us to meditate in Guelph downtown at Avalokiteshvara Kadampa Buddhist Centre. We offer meditation classes throughout the week, Sunday mornings, Sunday afternoons, Tuesday mornings, and Wednesday and Thursday evenings. We also offer lunchtime meditaitons and weekend courses and retreats.We also offer a Buddhist study program, the Foundation Program, for those who wish to go deeper into Buddhist wisdom and meditation. Our classes are held in person. We offer some online classes to members.

Each class consists of guided meditations and teachings that we can contemplate and practice throughout the week. Through engaging in meditation practice we can develop and maintain a peaceful mind all the time. If we have a peaceful mind all the time we will be happy all the time, regardless of whether our conditions are good or bad. Now is the time to train in inner peace and happiness by putting Buddha’s teachings into practice. Come and meditate in Guelph with us.
Everyone welcome!
