Tibetan Buddhist Society | Peaceful Land of Joy Meditation Centre |
The Tibetan Buddhist Society continues the Tibetan Buddhist tradition in the West.
The Tibetan Buddhist Society's Melbourne property, the Peaceful Land of Joy Meditation Centre, is a beautiful, tranquil ten acre haven, with 2700 rose bushes in 400 varieties, 2500 trees, flowering courtyards and lake and bird life.
A magnificent traditional Tibetan temple, unique in the Southern hemisphere, was completed in 2000 and all classes are held there.

Geshe Loden (Geshe-la) trained as a monk from the age of seven. He left Tibet for India in 1959 after China invaded his country. To find out more please click here.
