What Is the Mind’s True Nature
Afternoon Course
Saturday, 25th January
About this course
Although we often talk about our mind, if someone were to ask us, ‘What is the mind?’, we would have no clear answer.
Because happiness is found inside the mind, understanding the mind is essential to our wish for happiness.
Join us for an enlightening encounter with your own mind and the underlying serenity that is waiting for you there.
We will explore:
Meditations for clearing the mind.
What an understanding of the mind tells us about our spiritual potential.
How an understanding of your mind’s nature helps you choose positive thoughts.
See the Q&A below for more info on our courses.

-
Our courses have three parts:
Guided meditation
Every course includes a chance to practise meditation. No prior experience is necessary and all the meditations are guided.
Teaching
From Buddha’s teachings, these practical talks help us to solve our daily problems and find peace, happiness and, if we wish, a deeper purpose in our busy lives.
Discussion
A chance to discuss the topic of the talk and meditation with others during the break over refreshments. No one is ever ‘put on the spot’ and asked to talk in a class. The teacher will normally make time for questions, and will be happy to clarify any points during the class too.
-
Yes. Courses cover a wide variety of topics from simple stress reduction to profound wisdom teachings, but are always taught in an accessible way such that everyone leaves with some practical insight they can use in daily life.
-
No. People from all backgrounds attend JLC to find peace according to their own individual needs and wishes. Everybody is welcome.
-
No special clothing is needed. Our courses do not include any physical exercise and most people choose to sit on chairs, though cushions are also set out for those who prefer to sit on the floor.
-
Other than removing shoes before going in to the meditation room (they can be worn as normal elsewhere) and turning phones off during session, there are no special rules to follow. People are always very pleasantly surprised with just how informal, welcoming and down to earth Jangchub Ling is; you’ll feel right at home in no time.
-
Walk-ins are very welcome; we can take payments by card or cash. Advance bookings can be made online or at any of our classes.

Courses are not currently online. Centre members can access several of our classes online and we hope to offer online courses in the future too.
