Advanced Classes

 

Teacher Training Programme Classes (T.T.P.)

The Teacher Training Programme takes place at the Centre on Monday and Tuesday mornings and Monday evenings (three two hour sessions). If you are interested in joining, please contact the centre. On the Teacher Training Programme we study the books from Foundation Programme, but we are also able to receive teachings on seven other profound books such as Venerable Geshe-la's Ocean of Nectar and Guide to Dakiniland.

This term we will begin the study of Meaningful to Behold, a commentary to Shantideva's Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life. If you are interested in joining TTP, please contact the centre first and arrange an interview with the Resident Teacher.
