Phuntsok Chö Ling, Tibetan Buddhist Centre in the Netherlands, organises its yearly spring retreat. During this retreat the participants will take a closer look at Shamathā and Kyerim meditation. Lama Jigmé Namgyal will give information about the meaning and background of these meditation techniques and he will guide us in its practice.

Shamatha, which means ‘calm abiding’ is a form of meditation that teaches you to focus your attention on one object, for example, breathing. You bring your body and mind to rest in the present moment. This technique gives you more control over emotions and thoughts and allows you to remain calm in any situation.
