Touching Ground

8 Verses of Mind Training [Weekly]
Every aspect of our existence is permeated by bliss. However, out of habit, we misunderstand the very essence of who we really are.
Hosted online every Wednesday at 7pm CEST, Gomde Germany-Austria invites you to join us as we playfully explore our mind, our heart and our world.
Net Zero and Beyond
Over the coming years, what we do to get to carbon net zero (when the amount of greenhouse gases we add to the atmosphere is no more than the amount we take away) will have a major impact on the world we live in.
Following the serialisation of Gomde UK’s carbon net zero strategy in recent weeks we are now delighted to invite you to a special webinar where you can learn more about our plans for a carbon-neutral future.
Bodhicitta for Yogis: Exploring the Unity of Wisdom and Compassion
Over two weekend seminars hosted at Gomde Germany-Austria, we’ll explore the potential of human existence and how we can begin to realize it.
As the incomparable master the 3rd Karmapa, Rangjung Dorje taught: In the moment of great love, empty essence nakedly dawns.
Bhūmi Book Club
In this circle we will come to know our mind, deepen our meditation practices, and learn how to cultivate radical happiness — a happiness not dependent on our outer circumstances.
Reading Radically Happy slowly (part 1), we will come together in sisterhood with lively conversation, and are blessed to have teachings straight from the source, Erric! This book is truly radical and liberating! It’s likely to change your life and perspective with its ancient, and grounded wisdom.
Being in touch with the ground of our true nature
The four immeasurable qualities of the awakened mind.
Equanimity, Compassion, Loving-Kindness, and Joy are taught and practiced in many spiritual traditions including all Buddhist schools. The actual practice and its effect are closely connected to each tradition and its philosophical view.
In this course, we will follow the tradition of the great Dzogchen masters with a special emphasis on how each of these qualities is already an essential part of the awakened mind.
Weekly Meditation Group
Compassion (karuna) and Loving Kindness (metta) is pointing to the possibility that our fully realized potential is an inconceivable well-spring beyond any limit.
During these seminars, we’ll explore what is the potential of human existence and how can we begin to realize it.
Radically Happy: Coping in a Chaotic World
All people want to be happy and lead a meaningful life, but the way we normally try to bring about this brings about very temporary happiness at best and, at worst, leads to blatant dissatisfaction and suffering. By changing our way of life only slightly, but at the same time radically, we can develop a subtle feeling of contentment and wellbeing, even when things really don't work as expected.
