Atisha Centre is a calm and peaceful Buddhist retreat and educational facility, nestled in
the native Australian bushlands of central Victoria. Founded in 1981 we are a part of the dynamic
and inspiring vision of Lama Thubten Yeshe. Atisha Centre is proudly affiliated with the Foundation for
the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (
FPMT)
a network of Buddhist centres in Australia and around the world.
Situated with Atisha Centre is the
Great Stupa of Universal Compassion, currently under construction which will be one of the most significant Buddhist temples
in the world and
Thubten Shedrup Ling Monastery
where monks devote themselves to study, meditation and spiritual transformation. This monastery provides a valuable opportunity for
people visiting the centre to make a connection with ordained Sangha.
