Feature Events
10-week online course, with Dominique Side
9 February - 20 April 2026
“This course provides a refreshing and stimulating approach to the Dharma. I really appreciate Dominique's clear and direct style of teaching, and her knowledge and experience of the subject really shows.” Jon
The Buddha’s wisdom reveals a new way of seeing the world and ourselves in it. Buddhist teachings offer reflections that challenge our usual ways of thinking and invite us to question our values and assumptions.
This interactive course is an exploration of the key points of Buddhist thought. We will examine these perspectives closely to see the similarities and differences between Buddhist views and contemporary ideas. We will be invited to revisit our own views and clarify for ourselves what our outlook on life actually is. This process leads to far greater confidence in the way we see things.
Weekend retreats with Rigpa Senior Teacher, Jan van der Breggen
These weekends will take you to the heart of the revolutionary insight of Buddhism, that life and death are in the mind, and nowhere else.
With plenty of time for reflection and discussion, we will come to see how the mind's appearances—thoughts, emotions, and perceptions—are indeed workable, and the peace, compassion, and wisdom that are at the heart of who we really are is within reach.
