Attend teachings on the Lam Rim, the graduated path to enlightenment. Buddha House offers authentic Dharma teachings in the Tibetan tradition for all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners.

Beginning simply, with a gentle focus on mindfulness of the breath, these classes are suitable for students of any level. The basic technique can lead to a greater awareness in daily life, as well as providing additional benefits for relaxation, stress reduction and contentment.

Experienced teachers present relevant, practical and accessible advice to help us in our everyday lives, based on the principles of Buddhist psychology and practice. No prior knowledge of the Dharma is required.

Puja is the name given to the wide variety of devotional and offering ceremonies practiced in all Buddhist traditions. Pujas are an integral part of Tibetan Buddhism, and are strongly recommended by Lama Zopa Rinpoche, the spiritual guide of Buddha House and the FPMT.

On retreat, you can escape from the distractions of everyday life to focus on meditation or Dharma practice. One-day retreats are offered at Buddha House as part of some Dharma courses. Longer group and solitary retreats are available via our sister centre on Kangaroo Island.

The Dharma For Kids program aims to help children aged between 4 and 12 years develop universal ethics for living a happy life. Activities that encourage a caring attitude and mindfulness will include stories, meditation, children’s yoga and role play.
