Bodhi
Find community, care and continuity in Bodhi, Rigpa’s open programme for anyone discovering meditation, mind and compassion. Are you wrestling with difficult questions of life, dealing with stress, anxiety, poor sleep, responsibility, and how you want to be in the world? Try Being Bodhi.
Bodhi is different from other courses
Bodhi offers an experience beyond just another course. Our aspiration is to provide a space where everyone can explore who they really are. Beyond a simple course, we offer a continual experience that includes weekly courses, ‘Bodhi Moments’ (workshops to help us apply what we’re learning to real life), meditation challenges, impromptu gatherings, simple sitting practice, and lots more!
Bodhi’s Three-part Programme
Clear Mind
Discovering how the practice of meditation can help us to recognise our true nature and awaken to who we really are—beyond the stress, anger, and the hosts of negative emotions of daily life. We look at meditation both on and off the cushion, provide meditation challenges, and day-long retreats.
Open Heart
Finding the courage to uncover and reconnect with our innate capacity of warm-heartedness, kindness, and love. Through the practices of loving-kindness and compassion we meet the world and people around us with more joy, harmony, and resilience.
Seeing Reality
Investigating the way things actually are to live more in accord with reality. We will explore wisdom topics such as ‘change and impermanence’ and ‘mind and the nature of mind’.
