Mr. Lance Cousins is giving a dhamma
talk this Saturday at 7.45pm at the
Oxford Buddha Vihara. The topic is
"Concentration and Daily Life".
Mr. Cousins is a Pali and Abhidhamma
scholar. He studied at Cambridge and
then taught at Manchester University
for many years before retiring as a
senior lecturer. He was also
Chairman of the Pali Text Society at
Oxford.
He has also been the leader of the
Samatha Trust, a meditation group
which has its branches at many
British universities and some
American universities. The Samatha
Trust bought a church in Manchester
some thirty years ago and converted
it into a dhamma hall with a library
and teaching classes. The Trust also
has a big meditation retreat centre
in Wales, which was declared open
about 11 years ago.
Mr. Cousins will give three talks at
the Vihara, starting from this
Saturday.
Everybody is welcome |
