#034 | A Course in Buddhism

Starting July 11th, I am going to start going to a weekly class in Buddhism.  All of my learnings thus far have been from books, online reading and trying to remain open to opportunities to learn more about meditation.  So I am really looking forward to seeing what this weekly class, given in English, will hold.  It is also number 34 on my 101 Things in 1001 Days list, so that is just an added bonus!

It’s being held at the Buddha’s Light International Association of Victoria (BLIA) in Yarraville.  I’m really also hoping that I might be able to find something similar closer to my home, but at the moment the one closest to me is only offering beginner classes in meditation (which I may also do in the future, depending on my work/life/study balance!)

Would love to hear from anyone else that attends these classes, or some like them in Melbourne – I’m quite looking forward to seeing what type of people I will meet at them, I think it will be important to my growing in my faith to be surrounded by likeminded individuals on a more regular basis!
