About Perth Dharma Group

A small, heartfelt community sharing the gift of meditation and the wisdom of the dharma with all who seek it.

Our Story

Rooted in practice, offered in service

Perth Dharma Group Inc was established in March 2018 and is a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ABN 49 219 828 413). We are based in Kenwick, in Perth's south-east, and serve the wider Western Australian community.

We began as a small circle of friends who wished to practise meditation together and share the benefits of the Buddhist path. From those quiet beginnings, we have grown into a warm and welcoming community, run entirely by volunteers.

Everything we offer is given freely, sustained by the age-old spirit of dana — generosity. We simply hope to make meditation and the dharma accessible to anyone who would like to learn.

Our Mission

To make meditation and the teachings of the Buddha freely available to all — supporting people of every background to cultivate peace, mindfulness, wisdom and compassion in their daily lives.

Our Vision

A community in which anyone — regardless of age, culture or experience — can find a calm refuge, a supportive sangha, and a path towards greater wellbeing and inner peace.

What Guides Us

Our values

Generosity (Dana)

We offer our teaching and practice freely, sustained by the kindness and generosity of our community.

Inclusivity

We warmly welcome everyone — all ages, faiths, cultures and levels of experience. All are equal on the cushion.

Compassion

We aspire to meet ourselves and others with kindness, patience and understanding — on and off the cushion.

“The mind is everything. What you think, you become.”
