Samantabhadra Buddhist Centre

Welcome to Meditation In Birmingham, the website for Samantabhadra Buddhist Centre. If you wish to learn how to meditate, or are interested in studying Kadampa Buddhism in Birmingham and the West Midlands we have many classes and courses available.
We currently run local Buddhist meditation classes in Erdington/Sutton Coldfield, West Bromwich, Bournville/Cotteridge, Birmingham City Centre, Solihull, Quinton and Wolverhampton.
"The purpose of meditation is to make our mind peaceful. If our mind is peaceful we shall be free from worries and discomfort, and so we shall experience true happiness; but if our mind is not peaceful, we shall find it very difficult to be happy, even if we are living in the very best conditions. If we train in meditation, our mind will gradually become more and more peaceful, and we shall experience a purer and purer form of happiness. Eventually we shall be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstances"
