Exploring the Mind Series: Awareness and Knowing

Wai Cheong

About the Teaching

There is a wealth of knowledge of our mind or consciousness, and the ways we are aware of and know the objects and happenings around us in the Buddhist teachings. In this workshop we take an experiential approach to explore the concepts of mind, different ways of knowing and the mental factors that affect our conscious awareness. With a better understanding of the functioning of our mind, we can relate creatively with our mental habits and develop the skill to foster greater stillness, clarity and bliss in our mind and heart.

All are welcome; there is no prerequisite.

The workshop will feature brief explanations, guided meditations, and time for Q&A.

Wai Cheong

Wai Cheong Kok is from Singapore. He has been teaching meditation and Buddhism since 1996, with a special interest in making available the benefits of meditation to a wider audience. From 2006-2015 and starting from 2020, he has served as a senior teacher at Vajrayana Institute, a Tibetan Buddhist Centre affiliated to the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT). After studying Dharma for several years, Wai Cheong set out to deepen his understanding of spiritual practice by completing the first 7-year Masters program in Advanced Buddhist Studies of Sutra and Tantra at Istituto Lama Tsong Khapa in Italy from 1998-2004. This was followed by a four month solitary retreat in New Zealand.
