CENTRES IN CANADA
Most of these Centres consist of people and families living together, working full-time jobs, and incorporating Diamond Way teachings and meditation into their daily lives. Members share responsibility for guiding meditations, answering questions, and giving explanations about Buddhism; their work is unpaid, and based on idealism and friendship.
The main practice in all the Centres is the Guru Yoga meditation on H.H. the 16th Karmapa. There is a relaxed social atmosphere in the Centres, refreshments are provided, and questions are encouraged. Other activities include readings, teachings and videos. These weekly meditation evenings are open to the public and are free of charge.
Diamond Way Centres work together to organize retreats, lectures and workshops throughout the year. Lama Ole Nydahl gives several annual retreats on Phowa, Meditation, Mahamudra, and Ngondro. In addition, other traveling lay teachers provide explanations and practical examples, bringing dharma teachings to life. |  |
