Lewisham Path of Freedom
Mon 11 Sep 2023 @ 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
We are a Buddhist practice and study group of the Longchen Foundation based in Lewisham in south London.
Our everyday world is so familiar and seemingly mundane that we easily take it all for granted. By learning to relate to experience in a simple and direct way we can begin the great journey to discover something about what we truly are and develop the confidence to face anything we might experience.
We meet from 7:00-8:30pm at the Lewisham Unitarian Meeting House, 41 Bromley Road, Catford, London SE6 2TS with an Autumn term beginning 11th September, 2023 until 4th December 2023 with a half-term break on 30th October 2023.
There is no fee, but we ask for a donation towards costs.

About Us
The Lewisham group has been meeting since the year 2000. The classes are taught by Caroline Cupitt, David Hutchens and Kathy Nairne, all of whom live locally and were close students of Rigdzin Shikpo, who was the director and first teacher of the Longchen Foundation.
Those attending are a mixture of experienced students and complete beginners who meet weekly to practice meditation together and to deepen their understanding of the Buddhist teaching.
The core teaching of our group is the view of complete openness towards your experience and the development of that attitude through the practice of formless meditation. Once or twice a year we run short courses (4-5 weeks duration) focusing on the main elements of formless meditation. At other times topics from the Path of Freedom course are presented.
If you are interested in attending the group or for more information please contact David or Caroline on 020 8690 8778 or email us via southlondon@longchenfoundation.org.
