Tharpa Choeling - Wellington Buddhist Centre

Tharpa Choeling - Wellington Buddhist Centre Buddhist centre located in Wellington NSW Australia. We run meditation sessions, Buddhist and secular workshops and Yoga and Tai Chi classes

We have been teaching meditation and Buddhism in Wellington New South Wales since 2007 and in the central west since 2001. At our new centre, set in the grounds of a former garden centre, we offer meditation, Buddhist workshops, with many more activities planned for the future. Tharpa Choeling was named by Venerable Geshe Thubten Dawa, a highly respected Tibetan master in the Gelug Buddhist tradition. Geshe Dawa's main teacher is the 15th Lab Kyabgon Rinpoche. We hold His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama as the head of our lineage.

This Sunday! ⭐️🧘‍♀️ 🧘‍♂️⭐️

"Meditation is the application to our mind that soothes away emotional and mental pain. When we look within we are able to transform ordinary habitual thinking, negative thinking and harmful ideas. We will realise an ability, a continual process, that brings happy, beneficial change." Genla Venerable Thubten Tenzin, Resident Teacher at Tharpa Choeling - Wellington Buddhist Centre

Meditations for Self Awareness Workshop Sunday 16th November 10am to 2pm 🙏
All welcome, cost by donation, vegetarian lunch provided.

Last workshop for 2025! "Meditations for Self Awareness" on Sunday 16th November 10am to 2pm.
⭐️
It's the perfect opportunity for newcomers, those who are interested in meditation but maybe haven't tried it out yet, to learn and practice a variety of meditation types. It's also a great refresher for more experienced meditators.
⭐️
The aim is to become more aware, moving from simple forms of attentive awareness to greater, more expansive awareness.
⭐️
The program and meditations were written by our Resident Teacher Genla Venerable Thubten Tenzin, and will be presented by Venerable Choden in the peaceful meditation room at Tharpa Choeling - Wellington Buddhist Centre 166 Arthur St Wellington.
⭐️
The workshop is by donation, bookings aren't required but inquiries are welcome, on 6845 4661 or message/comment below. Vegetarian lunch will also be provided! The workshop is suitable for adults and teenagers.
⭐️
We hope to see you there!
