Life's Unfinished Business With Renate Ogilvie

The unfinished business that most of us carry with us is like a constant white noise of stress in our lives. This would be reason enough to address it. But asking for or granting forgiveness, expressing our love properly, our gratitude and appreciation to those who have inspired us, is of utmost importance as we practice the teachings and prepare ourselves for death, when any unfinished business will distract and disturb the mind at a crucial time.

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.

Meals and accommodation available separately.
