Secrets of Happiness

One famous Buddhist Shantideva said, ‘all the happiness in this world comes from the mind wishing for others to be happy,’ which is cherishing others. We can understand this from our own experience from when we really love someone, as opposed to having attachment for them.

Week 1 Mar 1   A Foundation for Love
We will see how, by learning to cherish others, we develop a basis for stable love and lasting contentment through viewing others as equally important as ourself. In this way we overcome the problem of finding relationships difficult as we learn how to cherish others.

Week 2 Mar 8 Our Best Friend or Enemy?
In our relationships with others we often experience difficulties. This can often arise due to obstacles in our own mind which provide a barrier to developing love. Learn how our self centeredness acts in this way as the root of these obstacles and how to free ourself so we can develop pure love.

Week 3 Mar 15 Creating Joy and Happiness
By learning how to cherish others we open our hearts and experience the joy and peace arising from this. Discover the methods of meditation which help us develop this mind of love.

Week 4 Mar 22 Our True Protector
Buddha so kindly showed how we have all the potential within our minds to gain complete happiness. The most powerful of these is our compassionate nature which functions to help us to maintain peace and happiness even in the most difficult situations and ultimately acts to free us and others from suffering.

Week 5 Mar 29 Trading Places
We limit ourselves with regard to how we relate to others and how much we experience from these relationships due to our failure to empathise with others and our focus on ourself. Learn how to feel close to others to enrich your love for others.

The Clapham meditation classes are open to everyone, from beginners to those with meditation experience.  They can be attended on a drop-in basis so there is no need to book in advance.

Per class: £8, or

Course Cards (available at classes): 4 classes for £28, 5 classes for £35
