Kuan Yin Meditation Centre, located in Lismore NSW, supports both Insight (Vipassana) and Zen meditation traditions.
The Centre was established by Subhana Barzaghi, a teacher in both the Zen and Insight (Vipassana) traditions. The Dojo was purpose built by Subhana as the first Zen Temple in Australia.
The purpose of the Centre is to provide a place for the community to come together to meditate and explore the Buddha’s teachings on freedom.
'Inspiration'
“Love this self, for no outcome,
just to be love.
Love this moment, for no reason,
just to be love.
Love the person before you,
for no reward, just to be love.”
