The Programme consists of a dynamic combination of teachings, meditation and discussion, all of which enable us to go deeper into the layers of meaning within each book that we study. All of this helps us to make real progress along our spiritual path.
Each class consists of preliminary prayers, guided meditation and reading from the book with commentary and discussion.
