We believe that the only authority we really have is ourselves and how Buddhism and meditation relate to us individually.
We meet every Wednesday evening at The Quakers Friends Meeting House, Hutton Rd, Shenfield. (In the High Street opposite Hussey Knights art supplies)
7.45pm for an 8pm start
On the first Wednesday of every month the group especially welcomes newcomers to meditation.
Our ethos is best expressed in Stephen Bachelor’s words :-
“It is also possible to imagine a community of friendships in which diversity is celebrated rather than censured. In which smallness of scale is regarded as success rather than failure. In which power is shared by all rather than invested in a minority of experts. In which women and men are treated as genuine equals. In which questions are valued more than answers.”
From: “Buddhism Without Beliefs.”
