Compassion is a cornerstone of Buddhist practice—simple to understand but not always easy to put into practice. This series explores how we can create a compassionate response to the challenges life throws at us. Through gentle discussion and guided meditation, this series invites students to reflect on their own process of creating compassion in the world.

Students will experience:
- Discovering self-compassion
- Finding compassion within ourselves
- Creating compassion within relationships
- Compassion in a crazy world
- Growing the compassion habit
- Fighting Compassion “Fatigue”
- Rejoicing in the compassion of ourselves and others
- Random acts of compassion
- Taking compassionate action together

If you want to experience more compassion this course is for you! Suitable for everyone, this course is an excellent place to start and develop a practice of compassion supported by both mediation and action.

Courses are held monthly on Sundays between 1:45pm and 3:30pm.

Keiron Pratt has grown up within the community of Chenrezig Institute. He has studied, offered service and completed group and solitary retreats at FPMT centers around the world. Through his experience as a meditation leader in Tushita Mediation Center, India and Kopan Monastery, Nepal, Keiron has introduced hundreds of students to the Buddhist teachings on compassion.

Established 1974, Chenrezig Institute is a centre for Buddhist study, meditation, retreat and practice nestled in the foothills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. The Institute is home to a Tibetan Geshe (Lama), a large community of ordained Sangha (monks and nuns), students, residents, volunteers, retreat goers and guests.

Apart from the formal study programmes, Chenrezig Institute is a peaceful, calm and relaxing place to spend a few hours, days or weeks. Stroll along the bush paths, wander in formal garden, espresso in the cafe or a vegetarian meal.

Teachers’ availability subject to change; please check Chenrezig Institute Calendar for updated information. Also below the far carpark is ‘The Wellbeing Centre’ which provides courses focusing on cultivating physical, emotional and mental balance and wellbeing. They include authentic traditional and modern psychological approaches to health and lifestyle. They are suitable for everyone who maybe looking for genuine happiness and well-being in a non-religious framework.
