Finding a Meditation Practice that suits you

Speaker: Tina Ng

Wed 13 July | 7-8.30pm

Location: In person at Metta Centre (Bankstown) or Online (Zoom link below)

Cost: By donation

With the many different types of Buddhist meditation styles and traditions, how do we know which suits us and which to practice? What is the difference between Samatha or Shamatha (concentration/ tranquillity) meditation and Vipassana or Vipasyana (insight) meditation? Join us in an interactive session to explore how to find a meditation practice that suits you.

This session is a good introduction for those interested to join the Mitra Metta Retreat, where we will explore the different meditation styles as part of the retreat.

This session’s topic was suggested by a participant. If you have a topic that you would like us to explore in our future sessions, feel free to suggest one by emailing contact@mettacentre.com.
