Hello from the Wellington Buddhist Centre

Saradarshini Nicholl from 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.

Can anyone give advice on how to do this? I have already reported the interference to the neighbourly team.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
