WHAT"S ON: Learn meditation - Special Topic, Two Thurs, Free admission

Durba from Mount Eden

You’re invited! A journey from introductory practices to deeper insights and secrets – an overview of meditation practices and the guidelines needed to successfully meditate.

Thursday, December 15, 7:30pm – 9pm
TOPIC: Discovering the path of mantras and music

Meditation requires an emptying or stilling of the mind’s incessant chatter – no easy task for most practitioners! Another way is quite the opposite, filling the mind, inspiring the mind with mantras/sacred chants that leave no room for distracting thoughts. These can be as chants or as simple songs, aligning the mind with the spiritual energies of the heart.

Mantras are a simple, powerful way of meditating - this evening we’ll introduce several mantras to help awaken the inner life, and to share an effective, helpful new understanding of meditation.

Thursday, December 22, 7:30pm – 9pm
TOPIC: Finding your own path
We are travelers at the end of long, unremembered journeys – no need to look back or remember, but rather to understand where our individual journeys are intended to take us.

These Thursday sessions offer periods of both guided and silent meditation, cover a wide canvas of meditation techniques to help you find your own unique path, and look at lifestyle positives that will support your journey of discovery.

Venue: 93 Dominion Road, Mt Eden. (adjacent to the Target furniture building, entry at no. 93 on the corner of Dominion Rd/Tawari Street)

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
