BBG West Sussex Aims
It Is Our Responsibility As Facilitators To Help BBG ...
-
provide a safe space for Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike which is conducive to meditation, where we can discuss, learn, reflect, experience, question and debate Buddhist teachings.
-
inform and support, not recruit or convert. There is no membership, no sign up. This is an inward journey and you decide how far you go.
-
offer weekly meetings to keep the group alive, structured, engaging and useful to both new and established practitioners.
-
maintain BBG as a self-funding group through donations only ensuring all who want to come can afford to.
-
host annual teaching events and public talks from Ringu Tulku Rinpoche. Request topics from him that are engaging and relevant for both established and new practitioners.
-
host teachings from other visiting teachers. Request topics from them that are engaging and relevant for both established and new practitioners.
