Facilitated by Amma Thanasanti
September 2: Body
October 7: Vedana and Emotions
November 4: Hindrances, and Factors of Awakening
December 2: Four Noble Truths
This class series will use the Satipatthana Sutta as a guide to learn the Buddha’s teachings on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness and apply trauma-informed principles to these instructions.
This Sutta is highly regarded in all of the Buddha’s discourses because it contains a complete set of teachings designed for freedom. As extensive and liberating as the Four Foundations’ teachings are, when trauma is present, it can interfere with putting the teachings into practice.
Each class will have two 90-minute sections with a break in between them. Each section will contain, guided meditation, Dharma talk, and discussion.
Amma Thanasanti brings decades of experience studying and practicing a trauma-informed approach to The Four Foundations of Mindfulness.
This class is open to all meditators, regardless of their experience with trauma. We will provide a safe and supportive space to explore these topics.
Cost to register is on a sliding scale.

Event Details
This month’s Sangha Gathering explores the the power of devotion to open our heart and settle in the natural great peace of our own true nature.
As it says in The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying (page 139):
Just as Buddha said that of all the buddhas who attained enlightenment, not one accomplished this without relying on the master, he also said: “It is only through devotion and devotion alone, that you will realize the absolute truth.” The absolute truth cannot be realized within the domain of the ordinary mind. And the path beyond the ordinary mind, all the great wisdom traditions have told us, is through the heart. The path of the heart is devotion.
Please join us in person at 158 Australia St, Newtown to make the most of your time with our community of practitioners.
For those unable to join in person, the day will be offered online through this Zoom link.
If you are able to join us, either in person or online, please let us know by registering here.
Here is the plan for Sangha Gatherings for the remainder of 2023:
1 October The Causes of Happiness are Present in Ourselves
5 November An Infinite Space within Ourselves
3 December Purify Everything into the Nature of Mind
Please mark those dates in your diary; we really look forward to seeing you in person or online.

Event Details
In the Gelug tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, Mahamudra (Great Seal) meditation is the practice of realising the great seal of reality, the empty and selfless nature of all things. With its unique starting point of meditating on the clear and knowing nature of the mind, we learn to settle back and meditate as spacious awareness. Within this extraordinary experience of clarity, spaciousness, bliss and absence of discursive thinking, we turn our introspective awareness to examine the nature of the subject, our habitual sense of self, in order to free ourselves from all our grasping, attachment and heartache.
Through Mahamudra meditation, we can connect with our own aware space and experience the bliss that comes from this effortless way of engaging in meditation.
The workshop will feature explanations, guided meditations and time for Q&A. All are welcome.

About the Presenters:
Ven. Miao Hui (Sister Sophia) is a Buddhist nun, having ordained in 2003. She resides at the Chan Miao Zen Centre in Penrose. She is widely travelled, and has practiced in all the three major Buddhist traditions: Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana. She has practiced in Taiwan, China, India, Myanmar, India, and Sri Lanka. She met her teacher Ven. Jian Meng, from the Mahayana Zen tradition when she was recovering from poor health. He showed her a way to recover from her poor health in both the mind and body. She has spent years deepening her mediation practice and despite all the different lineages of Buddhist traditions, she has found they are all common in their ability to deeply transform our lives and liberate us from the illusions of the mind that binds us to suffering.
Tina Ng is the Founder and President of the Metta Centre, and also the Principal Solicitor of Metta Legal, a law firm that deals with cases relating to family law, child protection, property, civil litigation and guardianship matters. She is an accredited mediator at Metta Resolution, which provides mediation, training and coaching to resolve conflict in the community and within families. Tina is a Buddhist Chaplain at the Western Sydney University. Tina has a keen interested in supporting the youth, and has run various mentoring programs through her business and social projects. She has organised various events, has played the role of coordinator, emcee, and auctioneer at charity functions. She has shared the Buddha’s teachings in conferences, talks, workshops, and in her writings.

Event Details
Monday, 7 pm (10 classes)
Images, visual or otherwise, are especially potent symbols that can affect us in powerful ways. Buddhist tantric teachings make use of our natural ability to imagine and visualise to activate profound experiences of stillness, bliss and clarity.
In this advanced course we will look at how to utilise these techniques to nurture mindfulness, wisdom and compassion conducive to our genuine happiness.
Each weekly session will include explanation, guided meditation and Q&A. No prerequisite required. All are welcome.

With the practice of Buddhist tantra, we can return a sense of wonder and bliss into our daily encounters, re-enchanting our world by shifting our perspective. In this advanced course, we will cover important tantric principles, such as the fundamental purity of our mind, the principle of transformation, utilisation of desire and pleasure in the spiritual path, techniques for meditative absorption, and so forth, and explore them through meditations inspired by the teachings.
This course looks at the wider application of tantric principles in our daily experiences and does not contradict the traditional requirement of secrecy in tantra. No prerequisite required. All are welcome.

Speaker: Sister Paññasiri (Joining online from Sri Lanka)
Location: In person at Western Sydney University (74 Rickard Rd, Bankstown City Campus), Room 1.4.34 on level 4 or Online (Zoom link below)
Cost: Free
The Buddha praised the mastery of instruction over the mastery of psychic power and the mastery of telepathy because it leads to noble attainment and culminates in complete liberation. Lay people received gradual instructions from the Buddha and attained the fruit of stream entry and more. Now more than 2,500 years after the parinibbāna of the Buddha, if we have faith or conviction in the Buddha, incline towards understanding the Buddha’s gradual instructions and diligently practice in accordance with them, we can still expect wonderful results. In this Dhamma session we will examine the Buddha’s gradual instructions from the Pali Canon and why they are so valuable and powerful.
About the speaker: Sister Paññasiri is from the Sutta Meditation Series YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/@SuttaMeditationSeries
The Sutta Meditation Series YouTube channel gives information on how to study the Buddha’s Teachings (Dhamma-Vinaya) and meditate on the Buddha’s insight (knowledge) pathways contained in the Theravada suttas. Particular emphasis is given to lay practice towards developing the Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path, attaining path and fruit, and culminating in the realisation of full liberation (nibbāna). They are a group of kalyāṇamitta who develop and practice in accordance with the Dhamma-Vinaya. Their Sangha is globally situated, with strong grassroots in Sri Lanka.

Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra, In brief, the Buddhahood achieved over countless aeons you will attain in this birth through the most excellent bliss or the state of Vajradhara. Samputa Tantra Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra offers a concise overview of the structure of the Tantric path, widely acclaimed in Tibet as the swiftest and most sublime means to realize Buddhahood. Tantra distinguishes itself in particular through a unique combination of method and wisdom, achieved through meditation on the perfect form of a buddha as completely devoid of true existence. Presenting the paths of all four classes of tantra, while not being a guide to Highest Yoga Tantra practice itself, this subject provides a clear overview of its complex path structure.
This is an advanced level course on Buddhist philosophy and suitable for those with Highest Yoga Tantra initiation only.

About the Presenters:
Ven. Miao Hui (Sister Sophia) is a Buddhist nun, having ordained in 2003. She resides at the Chan Miao Zen Centre in Penrose. She is widely travelled, and has practiced in all the three major Buddhist traditions: Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana. She has practiced in Taiwan, China, India, Myanmar, India, and Sri Lanka. She met her teacher Ven. Jian Meng, from the Mahayana Zen tradition when she was recovering from poor health. He showed her a way to recover from her poor health in both the mind and body. She has spent years deepening her mediation practice and despite all the different lineages of Buddhist traditions, she has found they are all common in their ability to deeply transform our lives and liberate us from the illusions of the mind that binds us to suffering.
Tina Ng is the Founder and President of the Metta Centre, and also the Principal Solicitor of Metta Legal, a law firm that deals with cases relating to family law, child protection, property, civil litigation and guardianship matters. She is an accredited mediator at Metta Resolution, which provides mediation, training and coaching to resolve conflict in the community and within families. Tina is a Buddhist Chaplain at the Western Sydney University. Tina has a keen interested in supporting the youth, and has run various mentoring programs through her business and social projects. She has organised various events, has played the role of coordinator, emcee, and auctioneer at charity functions. She has shared the Buddha’s teachings in conferences, talks, workshops, and in her writings.

Tantra distinguishes itself in particular through a unique combination of method and wisdom, achieved through meditation on the perfect form of a buddha as completely devoid of true existence. Presenting the paths of all four classes of tantra, while not being a guide to Highest Yoga Tantra practice itself, this subject provides a clear overview of its complex path structure.
This is an advanced level course on Buddhist philosophy and suitable for those with Highest Yoga Tantra initiation only.

Images, visual or otherwise, are especially potent symbols that can affect us in powerful ways. Buddhist tantric teachings make use of our natural ability to imagine and visualise to activate profound experiences of stillness, bliss and clarity.
In this advanced course we will look at how to utilise these techniques to nurture mindfulness, wisdom and compassion conducive to our genuine happiness.
Each weekly session will include explanation, guided meditation and Q&A. No prerequisite required. All are welcome.

Traditionally, the New Year is a time to take stock of our lives, to reconnect more fully with our deeper aspirations, and to let go of what no longer serves. This nine-day retreat provides a precious opportunity to settle into silence and with the support of sangha/community, attune more fully to the heart and mind. Through this process of deep listening to ourselves and others, we can then better understand how to live our lives with more ease, kindness, compassion and clarity.

Event Details
With the practice of Buddhist tantra, we can return a sense of wonder and bliss into our daily encounters, re-enchanting our world by shifting our perspective. In this advanced course, we will cover important tantric principles, such as the fundamental purity of our mind, the principle of transformation, utilisation of desire and pleasure in the spiritual path, techniques for meditative absorption, and so forth, and explore them through meditations inspired by the teachings.
This course looks at the wider application of tantric principles in our daily experiences and does not contradict the traditional requirement of secrecy in tantra. No prerequisite required. All are welcome.

Event Details
Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra, In brief, the Buddhahood achieved over countless aeons you will attain in this birth through the most excellent bliss or the state of Vajradhara. Samputa Tantra Grounds and Paths of Secret Mantra offers a concise overview of the structure of the Tantric path, widely acclaimed in Tibet as the swiftest and most sublime means to realize Buddhahood. Tantra distinguishes itself in particular through a unique combination of method and wisdom, achieved through meditation on the perfect form of a buddha as completely devoid of true existence. Presenting the paths of all four classes of tantra, while not being a guide to Highest Yoga Tantra practice itself, this subject provides a clear overview of its complex path structure.
This is an advanced level course on Buddhist philosophy and suitable for those with Highest Yoga Tantra initiation only.

About the Presenters:
Ven. Miao Hui (Sister Sophia) is a Buddhist nun, having ordained in 2003. She resides at the Chan Miao Zen Centre in Penrose. She is widely travelled, and has practiced in all the three major Buddhist traditions: Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana. She has practiced in Taiwan, China, India, Myanmar, India, and Sri Lanka. She met her teacher Ven. Jian Meng, from the Mahayana Zen tradition when she was recovering from poor health. He showed her a way to recover from her poor health in both the mind and body. She has spent years deepening her mediation practice and despite all the different lineages of Buddhist traditions, she has found they are all common in their ability to deeply transform our lives and liberate us from the illusions of the mind that binds us to suffering.
Tina Ng is the Founder and President of the Metta Centre, and also the Principal Solicitor of Metta Legal, a law firm that deals with cases relating to family law, child protection, property, civil litigation and guardianship matters. She is an accredited mediator at Metta Resolution, which provides mediation, training and coaching to resolve conflict in the community and within families.

Rigpa Australia warmly invites you to join us at our National Centre in Newtown, Sydney over the January long weekend (Friday 26 – Sunday 28 January) for a relaxed, spacious and joyful gathering of our sangha, to take time to reconnect with the spirit of past Myall Lakes retreats and the blessings of Sogyal Rinpoche’s lineage.
Our Senior Teacher, Sherab Leypold, will be sharing a special collection of teachings that Sogyal Rinpoche gave at Myall Lakes in January 2016. These teachings are a magnificent demonstration of an awakened way of being, showing us how we can hold ourselves and live in a more enlightened way, being present and resting in the nature of mind.
For those unable to travel to Sydney to join this special weekend in person we are working to have this streamed to each of our city centres and available online. More details and registration will be coming soon.
