Meditation Centre

Style:

Toronto is part of an international network of over 600 meditation centres world-wide in the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. The centres were founded and are directed by Lama Ole Nydahl according to the wishes of the late 16th Karmapa. They are now under the spiritual guidance of H.H. 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, Trinley Thaye Dorje.

The main practice in all our centres is the Guru Yoga meditation on the 16th Karmapa. This meditation is guided in English and lasts around 30 minutes. Our centres provide a relaxed social atmosphere, as well as refreshments are provided, and questions are encouraged. Our weekly meditation evenings are open to the public and are free of charge.

All are welcome to attend. Our meditations are held every Tuesday evening at 7:30 p.m. starting with a short introductory talk (and questions) followed by a group meditation. We also offer a group meditation on Sundays at 12:00 p.m.
