Gönpo.

Facilitator
Ven. Gönpo is an accredited FDCW facilitator and a Buddhist monk based in Australia. He discovered Buddhism as a child through martial arts movies and TV shows, this was the inspiration for the childhood dream of becoming a wandering kung fu monk. It was a few decades before part of that dream could be realized with many other life adventures distracting him from the spiritual path in his teens and twenties.
It wasn’t until he was in his thirties that Gönpo began to really understand the power of Buddhist teachings when he used them to navigate the emotional roller-coaster of life’s many experiences such as a marriage break down and raising children alone. Fortunately, due the kindness of his teachers and great good karma, after his children finished school, Gönpo was able to fulfil the long-held dream of becoming a monk, albeit without the kung fu. Ending a 20-year career as a high school teacher of languages, he become a wandering monk spending time studying and meditating in Europe, India and Nepal before returning to his hometown, Brisbane, to take up the role of Spiritual Care Practitioner at Karuna Hospice Services, giving care and support to people with life limiting illnesses and their families.
In his time as a school teacher, it was the feedback from students around mindfulness practices and life lessons that had the biggest impact on Gönpo, motivating him to become a 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life facilitator. In his sessions, Gönpo encourages discussion and deep engagement in the topics, challenging participants to examine their own ways of thinking. Through understanding how we are now, we are better equipped to develop the habits that will bring us closer to how we want to be, interacting with our own minds and the people around us in ways that will make us and the communities we live in, happier and healthier.

Bi-weekly Meditations for a more Peaceful Life Organized by the Centre for Wisdom and Compassion
2025-12-09 19:30 - 20:30 (Europe/Copenhagen) | Online
“Many people think excitement is happiness…. But when you are excited you are not peaceful. True happiness is based on peace.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh
About the Sessions
Join us online for an hour to pause, center, and restore to a happier and more peaceful mind to support you in being a bit more resilient in a world which does not always make sense anymore. These guided meditations are to help you calm your mind, explore your own nature and develop a more peaceful perception on life. When you are well with yourself, you will be more able to be well with others and the world.
These meditations are very practical, they are not within a religious context, so they are suitable for people of different beliefs, ages and abilities, for beginners as well as for those with more experience.

What are the meditations based on?
They are based on a set of values and principles aimed at helping individuals cultivate a more peaceful and meaningful life. They are divided into four categories:

how we think (humility, patience, contentment and delight)
how we act (kindness, honesty, generosity and right speech)
how we relate to others (respect, forgiveness, gratitude and loyalty)
how we find meaning (aspiration, principles, service and courage).

These guidelines provide a framework for personal growth, encouraging individuals to think, act, relate, and find meaning in ways that foster a harmonious and fulfilling life.

Cet rencontre est en ligne le 16/01 à 18h30
Adresse mail: hilary.educationuniverselle@gmail.com
Facilitatrice: Hilary McMichael
Anglaise d’origine, méditerranéenne de cœur, je suis investie dans les programmes d’Éducation Universelle depuis 2009, d’abord en tant que traductrice des enseignantes venues de pays anglo-saxons, ensuite comme formatrice. Je facilite désormais les 16 Attitudes ainsi que les Méthodes de Transformative Mindfulness (la Pleine Conscience Transformative) ainsi qu’un programme sur la compassion. Je suis aussi formatrice qualifiée pour enseigner le cycle MBSR (la réduction du stress et la gestion des émotions par la pleine conscience) de Jon Kabat-Zinn. J’aime beaucoup enseigner et partager ces pratiques avec des groupes et en session individuelle. La pleine conscience de notre corps, de notre respiration et de notre esprit nous permet d’être mieux physiquement et mentalement. Ces programmes nous donnent des outils pratiques pour nous transformer.
Ma première passion de la peinture et du dessin, (diplômée par l’École Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Montpellier) est devenue un moyen d’expression qui rassemble ma créativité et ma vie spirituelle.
Jardinière et randonneuse, ma philosophie de vie m’amène vers la sobriété heureuse et joyeuse, faite de valeurs d’accompagnement, de paix et de confiance.

“El fundamento básico de la humanidad es la compasión y el amor. Esa es la razón por la que, si incluso unos pocos individuos simplemente intentan crear paz mental y felicidad en sí mismos y actúan responsable y bondadosamente con los demás, tendrán una influencia positiva en su comunidad“
-Su Santidad el Dalai Lama-
Sobre este Taller
¿Qué son las 16 Actitudes? ¿Cómo nos pueden ayudar en nuestra vida? ¿Cómo podemos mejorar nuestro interior con ellas?
Cuando hablamos de las 16 Actitudes, hablamos de cómo funciona nuestra mente en nuestro día a día, hablamos de cómo pensamos y reflexionamos, cómo actuamos, cómo nos relacionamos… y sobre todo, de cómo le damos sentido a nuestra existencia.
Las 16 Actitudes son pautas sencillas, inspiradas por Su Santidad el Dalai Lama; son la clave para estar mejor y relacionarnos mejor con nuestro interior y nuestro entorno. Trabajando con ellas podemos cambiar nuestras relaciones tóxicas y crear una armonía que haga que todo sea mejor…
Un curso práctico en el que trabajaremos activamente con pautas sencillas y a la vez profundas. Aprenderemos a mirar con ojos nuevos nuestro pensamiento y nuestras relaciones, y podremos llevarlo a nuestra vida diaria y ponerlas en práctica.
