Settled into Railway Place since 2023, Brahma Kumaris Fairfield is Melbourne's latest oasis of peace. FREE courses begin every month. Come visit us!
Presentations and Sunday Recharge Meditation on every week. World Meditation Hour 3rd Sunday every month. After 40 years in the Bohemian suburb of Fitzroy we have moved just 10 minutes away to the serene, leafy village of Fairfield where we are surrounded by coffee shops, eateries, a beautiful park with Heritage amphitheatre, and a boathouse. It is known for its diverse and vibrant community. It’s just 6kms from the Melbourne CBD and is directly across the road from Fairfield Train Station – the Hurstbridge line; the No. 11 Tram down Brunswick Street stops at Westgarth Street, a short few steps from the Westgarth Train Station, which is two stops from Fairfield; there are also 6 bus routes that pass through. For those seeking meaning in life and answers to life’s ‘big questions’, our unique calm environment, with experienced meditation tutors, is a great place to learn practical meditation and positive living techniques to help you lead a meaningful and empowered life. We continue to offer The Brahma Kumaris’ core curriculum courses in Raja Yoga Meditation in English, Hindi, Tamil and Punjabi. Weekly inspirational classes will resume, as well as World Meditation Hour which is a favourite, held on the third Sunday of each month. There will be many more community events. The centre is run by volunteers and all activities are offered without charge as a community service. Donations are welcomed to help in covering costs. We look forward to seeing old faces and new as we grow into our new environment.

Balance 💞☯
Wednesday 4 March, 7pm
The major work of the world is done by ordinary people who have balance in their lives and have learned to work in an extraordinary manner.
Many of us carry a quiet tension beneath our busyness, wondering how we can achieve balance amidst conflicting priorities. This session invites you to explore balance as a conscious daily practice rather than an unreachable goal. By noticing what is happening within, you can intentionally align your actions and energy with your own natural rhythm.
✨Presenter: Angela Boyd is a transformation and leadership advisor with over 30 years’ experience. Angela has seen that sustainable change begins not with strategy alone, but with consciousness. She now focuses on the intersection of inner authority, calm presence, and meaningful impact, helping people lead themselves from within so their influence naturally extends outward.

**UPDATE: Thursday course will now begin on 26th. Apologies.
Recognise when someone is trying to manipulate your emotions.
This can be done through guilt-tripping, gaslighting, or other tactics that are meant to make you feel a certain way. It's important to set boundaries and stand up for yourself when this happens.
This session will include meditation followed by a DVD of a class by Sister Shivani.
✨✨Sr Shivani has millions of followers all over the world due to her practical wisdom on how to deal with life. For over 25 years, BK Shivani has been a practitioner and a teacher of Brahma Kumaris Rajyoga Meditation.
