	KMC Netherlands offers weekly introductory meditation classes throughout The Netherlands and Belgium. Each class includes a simple breathing meditation, a short talk and a concluding meditation. There is also time to ask questions and discuss over light refreshments.

	These classes are suitable for everyone from complete beginners through to advanced practitioners of meditation.

	The drop&#45;in classes provide a basic introduction to Buddhist teachings and meditations. Through these classes we can learn how to use Buddha&#39;s advice as a solution to our daily problems.&amp;nbsp; In this way we come to experience a sense of peace and happiness in our lives.&amp;nbsp;

	Everyone is welcome &#45; just drop into any class!

	Use the menu on the left to find a class near you.

	Why meditate?

	The purpose of meditation is to make our mind calm and peaceful.&amp;nbsp; If our mind is peaceful we shall be free from worries and mental 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.&amp;nbsp; 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.&amp;nbsp; Eventually we shall be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstances.

	&amp;ldquo;When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within.&amp;rdquo;
	&#45; Geshe Kelsang Gyatso]]></description>

	A chanted meditation on relying upon our Spiritual Guide 

	The practice of Guru yoga, or relying upon a Spiritual Guide, is the root of the spiritual path and the foundation of all spiritual attainments. We can understand this from our ordinary experiences. For example, if we want to acquire special skills, become proficient at a particular sport, or learn to play a musical instrument well, we naturally seek a qualified tecacher to instruct us. By following our teacher&#39;s example and sincerely applying his or her instructions, eventually we accomplish our aim and become just like our teacher. If reliance upon a qualified teacher is necessary for mundane achievements, how much more necessary is it for spiritual attainments such as liberation or enlightenment.

	For more information please contact the Centre. You can also find a detailed explanation of this practice in the book Great Treasury of Merit.]]></description>

	What is a retreat?

	A retreat is a period during which we stop our daily activities in order to focus on a spiritual practice like meditation. To do a retreat we often seek a quiet, if possible remote place, with few distractions so that we can turn our mind inwards. During a retreat we can have a deep experience of peaceful, positive states of mind that can give us a completely new perspective on our life. Many people feel inspired and charged with positive energy after a retreat and they continue to cherish this period as a precious and meaningful experience.

	KMC Netherlands offers both short and longer retreats, during which people stay in Hotel Kadampa Holland in Schin op Geul. For more information about the various retreats click on the links on the left.]]></description>
