New Years Eve Celebration & Meditation
Why not try something a little different and truly memorable this new years eve, in the tranquil candle lit setting of Tara Kadampa Meditation Centre at Templeogue Village, Dublin.
Our new year’s eve celebration and meditation event – which everyone is warmly welcome to attend – will start with a delicious vegetarian light buffet and non-alcoholic drinks, in what is always a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Kadam Adam – the resident teacher at Tara KMC – will then give a short talk on how we can all live with greater peace and happiness in the year ahead. After this, we will engage in the deeply peaceful and restorative chanted meditation practice of the Buddha of compassion. Everyone is free to join in, or just sit back, relax and enjoy the sound of the peaceful chanting.
This will be followed by a guided meditation, where we can also develop our own positive inner resolutions, to take us into the new year. The evening will conclude with a non-alcoholic New Year’s toast. A great way for everyone to start 2024 on a truly positive footing.
