Kagyu Samye Dzong Scarborough Tibetan Buddhist Centre has existed since April 2009, and we now have a building at Londesborough Lodge in the Crescent.


We are now open again for meditation, teachings, events, monthly retreat days, as well as yoga and Tai Chi classes. We very much look forward to seeing you. 


Staff are always onsite but as we're sure you appreciate  it's difficult to accommodate drop-ins so if you want to meet or have a tour please don't hesitate to email Ani Tselha at admin@yorkshire.samye.org.

Centre Activities

Meditation

Meditation is the art of finding peace and happiness within, using simple methods of calming and stabilising.  We offer weekly meditation sessions and regular meditation & mindfulness training courses.

Buddhism

Buddhism expresses a deep respect for all faiths, and does not require people to convert to Buddhism in order to find the benefits of meditation.  Buddhist methods of meditation are aimed not only at calming the mind, but also at achieving insight into how the mind functions, and its true nature.
