Welcome to the Oxford Path of Freedom Group

We are back for the Spring term starting on 14th Jan doing a series of talks on Rigdzin Shikpo’s book ‘Never Turn Away’

This term will run from 14th Jan – 11th Feb then we are going to have 3 week half-term break as Dan will be on retreat.

Back on 11th March – 15th April.

Usual Tuesday evenings 7.30-9.00PM BST.  

40 minutes formless meditation to start.

We are going to be working through a chapter a week with the idea that we can all read along as we go.  So please find/source your book so that it is close to hand in time!

It is really very wonderful reading and worth revisiting over and over.  Really does go straight to the heart of Rinpoche’s teachings.

Trungpa Rinpoche’s great saying was, ‘Turn toward everything.’

There’s something very wholesome about turning toward things completely and openly.

It is sharp and uncontrived and feels genuine in a way that our

ordinary projections and ways of handling things never do.

About the Oxford Group

Meditation is the means of connecting more fully with the world of our own experience. It is a path of complete openness of heart and mind, through which we come to realise the indestructible heart essence that is our true nature. This realisation continuously benefits both ourselves and others.

We put emphasis on the practice of formless meditation and developing the view of openness. 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.

We meet weekly online via Zoom to practise meditation together and to deepen our understanding of Buddhist teachings.

7.30pm Formless Meditation
8.15pm – 9.00pm Teaching and Discussion

The class follows a term-based structure, roughly equivalent to the usual school term dates, but with occasional breaks for Bank Holidays and retreats.
