Course Details

Classes are designed to accomplish multiple purposes. First to introduce important spiritual concepts and understandings that enable us to improve our mind.

In this way, we can learn to adopt attitudes and reasoning that enable us to better deal with the uncertainties and difficulties in our life.

This includes learning about the power of positive mental factors that are the direct antidote to all negativities. There is also an opportunity to ask questions and clarify any misconceptions or confusion.

Thirdly, the teacher guides students in their meditation. This guidance consists of clear explanation and understanding of what object or subject of meditation that is to be practiced in that particular class.

Most people usual wish to meditate to experience immediate inner peace. However, we cannot remain in meditation indefinitely. Thus we need additional practices that help keep our mind peaceful in everyday life situations. This is why classes are structured as described above.

The Centre is a not-for-profit charitable organization run entirely by volunteers. Samudra Centre is devoted to offering ancient Buddhist wisdom on how to attain both temporary and ultimate happiness.Meditation classes are open for anyone to attend. The General Program (GP) introduces basic and advanced meditation practice. Meditation is a skill that anyone can develop and classes are designed to accommodate those that have no meditation experience whatsoever. The purpose of meditation is to become deeply familiar with virtuous thoughts and attitudes, and to develop a special wisdom that will naturally lead us to a state of permanent happiness.

A typical class consists of a teaching on various spiritual subjects, questions and answers, refreshments, and a guided meditation. The teaching mainly addresses how to put into practice Buddhist philosophy, whereby we can learn to maintain inner peace throughout the day, even in very stressful situations. Various courses and subjects of interest are offered throughout the year. Classes are ‘drop in,’ so you can attend whenever you wish. There is a fee of $12/class which helps to cover all the associated costs of the Centre.
