TONIGHT IN BRUNSWICK | The Wheel of Life: A Buddhist Map of Everything

A picture speaks a thousand words. In drawing the Wheel of Life, Buddha captured the full range of insights he had revealed throughout his many years of teaching.

Tonight, Gen Kelsang Rabten will show how this intricate image is a map of all our sufferings and all the joys we are capable of, and how it illuminates the path that leads to a state beyond sorrow. After the lecture there will be time for questions and answers, followed by refreshments and an opportunity to continue the discussion.

Friday 4 September | 7–8.15pm
Unit 104, 219 Albion St
$15 | Members free

Everyone is welcome!

Spiritual growth is rarely a straight line.

At times we can feel inspired and confident; at others, we may doubt ourselves, make mistakes or feel as though we are going backwards. When we expect change to happen quickly, it can be easy to become discouraged.

Join Gen Kelsang Rabten for Faith & Wisdom: Freedom from Discouragement, a meditation workshop exploring Buddha’s wisdom for keeping our faith strong, protecting ourself from discouragement and maintaining confidence in the person we are becoming.

Through teachings and meditation, we can learn to approach our spiritual journey with greater patience, resilience and inner strength.

Bookings now open for this special event with Gen La Kelsang Kunsang at the Melbourne Convention Centre. Saturday 19 December.

Christmas invites us to slow down and reconnect with what matters most. Yet for many of us, the season can feel anything but peaceful, with busy schedules, endless expectations, and the pressure to do it all. What if the greatest gift this Christmas wasn’t something to receive, but something to discover?

In this special event, Gen-la Kelsang Kunsang will share timeless Buddhist wisdom on finding peace and happiness in the midst of a busy life. Through practical insights and guided meditation, you’ll discover how to let go of stress and anxiety, meet life’s challenges with greater ease, and cultivate a peaceful, joyful mind.

Take a moment to pause, reconnect with yourself, and discover the peace that already exists within.
