SUMMARY:Medicine Buddha Puja
DESCRIPTION:About Medicine Buddha Puja \n\nIn Person Only\n\nPujas are rituals in which consecrated offerings – such as food\, water\, light and incense – are made to an enlightened being for the sake of creating conditions for progress on the spiritual path\, as well as removing obstacles. These offerings are made alongside prayer and chanting. \nThe seven Medicine Buddhas\, attainers of bliss\, strongly prayed for the temporal and ultimate happiness of yourself and all sentient beings. They vowed that their prayers would be actualized during these degenerate times when the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha are in decline. As the buddhas’ holy speech is irrevocable\, you can wholly trust in their power to quickly grant blessings to help all sentient beings in these degenerate times\,” Lama Zopa Rinpoche instructs  “If you pray to Guru Medicine Buddha\, you will quickly accomplish all that you wish. Just hearing the holy name of Guru Medicine Buddha and the sound of his mantra closes the door to rebirth in the suffering lower realms. It is written in the scriptures that you should not have a two-pointed mind (doubt) with regard to these benefits”. \nHow can I join?\nJust turn up!

SUMMARY:Climate Café
DESCRIPTION:What is a Climate Café?\nA Climate Café is a group-directed discussion of climate change with no agenda; an informal and confidential conversation\, supported by facilitators. \nAt a Climate Café everyone is welcome to join the conversation whether you are involved in climate action or not.  \nClimate cafés are open to anyone aged 18 or over who is worried about the climate and ecological crisis. A safe space to share\, learn\, talk and listen. \nFor more information about climate cafés\, you can read more at Climate Psychology Alliance. \nWhat attendees are saying about the Climate Café\n“I was fortunate to attend the Climate Café at Jamyang and was really glad I did. Quite different from what I expected (thought we would be sharing ideas on how to make a difference etc)\, rather we focused on deep connection and listening to our own and everyone’s feelings. I left the event at peace and inspired to continue on the journey. Grateful to Liz and Cynthia for beautifully holding the space and to everyone who attended – thank you and look forward to the next one” – Barbara \n“This was my first time at a climate cafe and at first I questioned the value of just talking about my feelings around the climate crisis\, I wanted to talk about what we were going to do about it! But I soon realised that deep self-enquiry into how the crisis affects me on an emotional level was absolutely what I needed\, and precisely what’s missing from so much of the public conversation around climate change. Liz and Cynthia were so skilful in holding the space and guiding the conversation. I would fully recommend”. – Freddie \n“Thank you for offering this space to connect with others around the climate emergency. I found the Climate Cafés a powerful reminder that we are not alone\, that others share similar concerns and deep care for our environment and its beings. Connecting with others in this intimate and safe way created a great sense of belonging and\, well\, joy”. –  Drolma \nAbout the Facilitators\nAnissa is a Counsellor and Psychotherapist with a deep passion for supporting individuals affected by adoption and trauma\, including trauma resulting from natural disasters. She is also interested in the psychological impact of climate change\, recognizing its profound effects on our well-being and mental health. \nMaeva is a student and volunteer at Jamyang and works as a midwife for the NHS. She has experience facilitating groups and workshops\, and is inspired to hold spaces where members of the community can come together to explore and discuss the emotional impact of the climate and ecological crisis. \nHow to Join?\nBook on Eventbrite \nWe suggest saving your spot ahead of time to help the facilitator to organise the event. \nDonations are welcome: Jamyang relies on the kind donations of those who attend activities in the centre. The funds enable us to offer this type of class on a regular basis – we thank you for generosity. \nFor any questions about this event\, please contact the organisers by emailing climatecafe.london43@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Medicine Buddha Puja
DESCRIPTION:About Medicine Buddha Puja \n\nIn Person Only\n\nPujas are rituals in which consecrated offerings – such as food\, water\, light and incense – are made to an enlightened being for the sake of creating conditions for progress on the spiritual path\, as well as removing obstacles. These offerings are made alongside prayer and chanting. \nThe seven Medicine Buddhas\, attainers of bliss\, strongly prayed for the temporal and ultimate happiness of yourself and all sentient beings. They vowed that their prayers would be actualized during these degenerate times when the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha are in decline. As the buddhas’ holy speech is irrevocable\, you can wholly trust in their power to quickly grant blessings to help all sentient beings in these degenerate times\,” Lama Zopa Rinpoche instructs  “If you pray to Guru Medicine Buddha\, you will quickly accomplish all that you wish. Just hearing the holy name of Guru Medicine Buddha and the sound of his mantra closes the door to rebirth in the suffering lower realms. It is written in the scriptures that you should not have a two-pointed mind (doubt) with regard to these benefits”. \nHow can I join?\nJust turn up!

SUMMARY:Death Cafe
DESCRIPTION:About this event \nAt a Death Cafe people\, often strangers\, gather to eat cake\, drink tea and discuss death. Our objective is ‘to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives’. \nA Death Cafe is a group-directed discussion of death with no agenda\, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session. Death Cafe was founded by Jon Underwood\, a beloved student at Jamyang Buddhist Centre London and a pioneer in opening up the conversation about death. \nTeas\, coffees and a variety of delicious vegan cakes are available for a modest price in our onsite Kindness Café \nEvent Format \n\nIt is a group-directed discussion with no agenda or theme.\nIt is a secular experience.\nIn an accessible\, respectful\, and confidential space.\nWith no intention of leading people to any conclusion\, outcome or course of action.\nIt is a discussion group rather than a grief support or a counselling session.\n\n  \nFacilitators \n  \nVenerable Barbara Shannon\, is a fully ordained nun\, former NHS nurse\, and a long-standing member of the Jamyang Buddhist Centre London. She is actively engaged in the local London communities helping people with issues around death and dying. She regularly leads the Death Cafe at Centre\, with her unique and engaging style of presenting. \n  \nDiana Opio\, as a trained nurse has been working in palliative care for several decades.  She has also helped set up and run palliative care academic programmes in East Africa. More recently she has become increasingly interested in aspects of spirituality at the end of life and has trained as a soul midwife and has run many death cafes. \n  \n  \nPlease note: \n  \nDeath Cafe is space for open and confidential discussion. It is not a bereavement counselling or support service. If you are recently bereaved and are seeking professional support\, please contact your GP or a relevant service for advice\, such as Cruse Bereavement Care. \n  \n  \nHow to join? \nThe space is limited\, so we suggest saving your spot ahead of time.

SUMMARY:Medicine Buddha Puja
DESCRIPTION:About Medicine Buddha Puja \n\nIn Person Only\n\nPujas are rituals in which consecrated offerings – such as food\, water\, light and incense – are made to an enlightened being for the sake of creating conditions for progress on the spiritual path\, as well as removing obstacles. These offerings are made alongside prayer and chanting. \nThe seven Medicine Buddhas\, attainers of bliss\, strongly prayed for the temporal and ultimate happiness of yourself and all sentient beings. They vowed that their prayers would be actualized during these degenerate times when the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha are in decline. As the buddhas’ holy speech is irrevocable\, you can wholly trust in their power to quickly grant blessings to help all sentient beings in these degenerate times\,” Lama Zopa Rinpoche instructs  “If you pray to Guru Medicine Buddha\, you will quickly accomplish all that you wish. Just hearing the holy name of Guru Medicine Buddha and the sound of his mantra closes the door to rebirth in the suffering lower realms. It is written in the scriptures that you should not have a two-pointed mind (doubt) with regard to these benefits”. \nHow can I join?\nJust turn up!
