Hello from the Wellington Buddhist Centre
The Wellington Buddhist Centre is the hub of a friendly community of people who are interested in Buddhism and meet up regularly to meditate and support each other.
We aim to practice and present a form of Buddhism that is grounded in the core teachings and practices that underlie all the different ethnic schools of Buddhism. We are simply Buddhists, basing ourselves on the core teachings, but open to the richness of the whole tradition.
We have a number of regular activities, including:
Tuesday at 7pm – 9pm is Open Night
All welcome - a talk on an aspect of Buddhism, tea followed by meditation.
Saturday Morning Meditation 9:00am - 10:30am
An open session of unled meditation followed by an optional coffee and a chat at a nearby cafe. A great way to start the weekend.
Monday Beginner’s Meditation 5:30pm - 6:30pm
This is a chance to get a taste of meditation through learning a basic practice.
Eight Step Recovery Meeting - Mondays 6:45pm - 8:15pm
These meetings open to anyone who see themselves as being in recovery from addiction, habitual behaviours or obsessive tendencies.
