Dharmapala Buddhist Centre
A Spiritual Community in Fremantle
Established in 1994 and developing from humble beginnings, Dharmapala Buddhist Centre has become a thriving Dharma community offering classes in meditation and Buddhism for all levels of interest to the people of Western Australia. The Centre, which is in the heart of Fremantle, offers a place of spiritual refuge for those interested in living a meaningful life according to the teachings given by Buddha.
The Centre is home to a residential community of ordained and lay practitioners, and is also where we conduct many of our classes, ranging from basic meditation through to formal study programmes. We also offer classes throughout the Metropolitan area and in Albany, Busselton and Margaret River. Drawing from the example of our lineage Gurus, the Teachers from Dharmapala Buddhist Centre endeavour to present the teachings in a practical way so that everyone can apply them in their daily life and through them come to experience greater happiness.
You are welcome to drop in to the Centre for a visit during reception hours: Monday to Friday 9.30am - 12.30pm (except during retreat times or when the Centre is closed. Please check the calendar first). Someone will be happy to show you around, you can spend some time browsing in our shop, visit the meditation room or you can browse the books in our library.
