Anytime, Anywhere Meditation Workshop
Dear Tergar South Africa Family,
Only 10 weeks to go until Mingyur Rinpoche’s first visit to South Africa! Have you booked your spot for Anywhere Anytime Meditation?
Mingyur Rinpoche brings decades of wisdom and modern accessibility to ancient meditation practices. This rare opportunity brings one of the world’s most respected meditation teachers to Cape Town.
Known for his warmth, humour, and interest in science, Rinpoche designed the Anytime Anywhere Meditation programme specifically to make meditation accessible and practical for modern life. Understanding that we often don’t have much time but still seek change, he created this comprehensive weekend programme drawing upon his extensive training and personal experiences.
Feeling Overwhelmed? Stressed? Anxious?
Discover meditation you can practice anywhere, anytime, under any circumstances.
In our modern world of unparalleled material wealth and comfort, sophisticated exteriors often mask feelings of dissatisfaction, anxiety, and depression. This programme shows you that true happiness is found within.
What You’ll Experience This Weekend
Opening Ceremony
Before we explore practical meditation techniques for modern life, we begin by acknowledging the indigenous wisdom traditions that are the foundation of all contemplative practices. Our opening ceremony honours this lineage by bringing together indigenous sacred practices from African and Tibetan traditions. This represents a respectful acknowledgment that the stress, anxiety, and disconnection we experience today are challenges that wise communities have been addressing for millennia. The ceremony is led by Dr Christie van Zyl (Gogo Bazamile) leading African cleansing practices with UCT students performing sacred songs and traditional drumming, followed by Mingyur Rinpoche performing a Tibetan smoke offering. This unique fusion of African and Tibetan wisdom traditions honours the indigenous roots of meditation before we explore practical techniques for modern life.
