The Joy of a Quiet Mind ~ Deep Silence: A Journey Within

Guided Silent Retreat

Saturday 31 May 2025

10am to 3pm

At Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre, Golders Green

Unplug for a day of silence at Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre and enjoy developing some mental peace.

This day retreat will include guided meditations and advice for taking care of your mind. The break times will be silent throughout the centre and there is space for you to relax with a book or a cup of tea.

Participants are encouraged to take a day out of their busy lives by switching off their devices so as to make the most of the time to rest and reflect.

“If we train in meditation, our mind will gradually become more and more peaceful, and we will experience a purer and purer form of happiness. Eventually we will be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstances.”  Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
