Tibetan Buddhist Society Melbourne
Peaceful Land of Joy Meditation Centre
Meditation
The Buddhist meditation tradition is equally relevant today as it was 2,600 years ago at the time of the Buddha. Happiness depends on mind and meditation is the supreme method for training the mind. We don’t have to change our belief system, we don’t have to become a Buddhist to practise meditation.
The Tibetan Buddhist Society Buddhist temple in Melbourne offers instruction in the beautiful grounds and temple of the Peaceful Land of Joy meditation centre.
The Buddhist Path
For those who would like to explore the Buddhist path, to learn more about Buddhist psychology, philosophy and advanced meditation techniques we offer a range of classes and retreats.
In addition to our teaching programme we hold festivals twice a year, and regular garden open days.
