What's On: free meditation course, Mt Eden
Four evenings with meditation instructor Jogyata, who spent many years developing his own practice under the tutelage of the late Indian master Sri Chinmoy. These evenings form a progressive course and include guided meditations, the use of mantra, an overview of the different paths of yoga, lifestyle recommendations supporting meditation and essential steps needed in developing a successful practice.
Jogyata is a storyteller, weaving his own life experiences into his talks and meditations and bringing spirituality into everyday life. No admission after the second evening please as this is a structured course.
When: Mondays/Thursdays, Nov. 4, 7, 11, 14; 7:00pm – 8:30pm nightly.
Venue: Sri Chinmoy Centre, 89 Dominion Rd, Mt Eden. Entry is through the side door just around the corner in Tawari Street. Ample street parking available.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
