2012 DM Pigrimage Group - Bodhgaya

Snowdonia Summer Retreat 2012

"Awakening to the dharma mind, and recognising our true nature".
This is the spirit and aspiration of the DharmaMind Buddhist Group.


The DharmaMind Group meets monthly in Birmingham, UK at the Friends Meeting House in Kings Heath. We also have several local groups situated around the country and Ireland that meet weekly. Details of these venues and events can be found below.

The group will also be holding retreats in 2013 at various locations in the UK and Ireland. Please check regularly for updates and any new events for you to come along and attend.

 

"The Nature of Mind" Monthly Day Retreat 

The monthly day retreats in Birmingham are the foundation and heart of the group whereby those dharma practitioners who feel commited to the group make every effort to attend regularly. We meet at the Friends House on the last Saturday of the month with the day consisting of periods of meditation and a lengthy period of dharma discussion. The discussion focuses not just on our experiences of our meditation practice but more crucially on how to bring the practice into daily life thus creating the spiritual environment for the dharma to arise and transform.
