A warm welcome to The Meditation Surrey Centre Whether you are new to the concept of meditation or are have meditated before, our centre is the ideal retreat where you can escape from the stresses of the world and discover inner peace.

In the busy world we live in, we can all at times have to deal with different forms of stress, including negative thoughts and emotions which can affect our health and our quality of life. Whatever problems life throws at us, the practicing of meditation has been proven to have significant benefits with improving our feelings of calm, happiness and of well-being.

We regularly welcome people from all walks of life and ages to our centre, where they practice Dhammakaya meditation- a Buddhist meditation technique with an ancient history.

In this retreat you will learn about the Dhammakaya meditation technique. Its simplicity, originality and effectiveness has made the Dhammakaya method greatly cherished in its native Thailand and is also growing fast in popularity internationally.

By practicing Dhammakaya meditation, you will benefit in many ways including:

• Increasing our ability to cope with the stress and anxiety of life.
• Developing a greater level of happiness within ourselves.
• Enabling our ability to control anger and negative emotions.
• Aiding clarity of the mind resulting in better productivity.
• Increasing memory function and the ability to concentrate.
• Improving our health including lowering blood pressure and pain management.

What makes Dhammakaya meditation different to conventional meditation is that it teaches about the centre of the body as the natural home of the human mind, as well as the inner gateway to enlightenment. The closer your mind is to its natural home, the closer you are to the natural state of supreme bliss. This inner happiness is self-sustainable, and can be practiced regardless of your personal circumstances or background.

Dhammakaya meditation also cleanses the mind, meaning that people who meditate regularly become gentler, kinder and more mindful towards other people.This results in greater harmony in our lives and contributes towards a more peaceful society.

Anybody who would like to benefit from all these things for their personal development or would simply like to de-stress naturally should definitely try Dhammakaya meditation. In addition to this, we can deepen our spiritual awareness by meditating, as we take time to look within and discover our inner strength and the power to achieve inner peace.
