Meditation is the art of inner peace.

Meditation is a very practical skill for people who live and work in this busy modern world. By learning how to control our mind through simple meditations we can find an inner stillness.

By learning how to meditate we discover for ourselves that the real cause of contentment and happiness is inner peace. With this true happiness we can enjoy our life and be of benefit to those around us. What could be more meaningful than this?

Buddha taught many practical methods to help resolve the pain and disturbances in our mind so that we can enjoy a deep peace and to share this peace with those we love, our colleagues and everyone we meet.

Meditation In Adelaide offers classes to make these methods available to anyone who wants them. The evening classes and day courses are ideal environments for learning these techniques and putting them into practice.

Buddha famously cautioned his disciples: ‘Do not accept my teachings simply because I am called Buddha’. Time and time again he reminded his disciples not to accept his teachings out of blind faith, but to test them as thoroughly as they would examine gold. It is only on the basis of valid reasons and personal experience that we should accept the teachings of anyone, including Buddha himself.

We test the teachings by putting them into practice. We discover what real happiness is and how to create the causes of that happiness.

Finally we can share this experience with others through our actions and make a real difference to the world.

We are a branch of Kadampa Meditation Centre Australia (KMCA) based in Melbourne, a not-for-profit organisation. KMCA is part of the New Kadampa Tradition - International Kadampa Buddhist Union (NKT-IKBU) which was founded in 1991 by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.

We hope that you will enjoy browsing this website and that Meditation in Adelaide can help you find a deep and lasting inner peace. May everyone be happy!
