Short Introductory Meditation courses Kopan Monastery offers short residential courses in Buddhist meditation and practice throughout the year. These courses give a theoretical and practical introduction to Buddhist philosophy of the Tibetan Mahayana Tradition. The courses combine lectures and teachings with meditation practice and discussion of relevant topics in a more informal way. A three day retreat with intensive guided meditation on the Graded Path to Enlightenment follows the course. Led by a Western nun with daily teachings from a Tibetan Lama, the course combines two styles of transmission of this precious knowledge on how to make life meaningful and worthwhile.
