Meditation

Why Meditate?
Where can we find true happiness? In the modern world, we are surrounded by unparalleled levels of material wealth and comfort, yet our sophisticated exterior often masks feelings of dissatisfaction, anxiety, and depression. Ironically, it often seems that the more "progress"we see in the world around us, the less content we are with our lives.

What is Meditation?
Meditation is the art of cultivating awareness and insight. It can be used as a practical tool to undo destructive emotional patterns, to develop positive qualities like wisdom and compassion, and to access the mind’s fundamental nature of pure awareness.

Tergar Meditation Training
Tergar Meditation Training provides an in depth course of training in both awareness and insight meditation.
