Chenrezig Institute is a centre for
Buddhist study, meditation and retreat, nestled in the forested hills
of the Sunshine Coast hinterland in South East Queensland, Australia.
The Institute is home to our two Tibetan Geshes (teachers), large community of ordained Sangha (nuns and monks), residents, work exchange participants, day volunteers, retreatants and guests.
We also provide a unique teaching centre offering a comprehensive programme in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition for beginners to advanced practioners.
The centre is named after Chenrezig - the Buddha of Compassion who embodies the compassionate wisdom of all the Buddhas. The goal of Chenrezig Institute is to benefit as many people as possible, helping them to transform their lives so they can benefit others and realise ultimate happiness.
Be wise. Treat yourself, your mind, sympathetically, with loving kindness. If you are gentle with yourself, you will become gentle with others. :: Lama Thubten Yeshe
