At the Melbourne Buddhist Centre we teach meditation and Buddhism in a way that is relevant to our contemporary life. The Melbourne Buddhist Centre runs a full program of drop-in meditation classes, Buddhism and meditation courses, study groups and day retreats that take place at the Centre in Brunswick as well as regular multi-day retreats in the country.
The Melbourne Buddhist Centre is run by the Triratna Buddhist Community, an international network dedicated to communicating Buddhist truths appropriate to the modern world.
While the essence of Buddhism is timeless and universal, its forms adapt to context and culture. With the spread of Buddhism around the globe, the task is to develop Buddhist practices relevant to the 21st century.
