Generosity and Shared Merit
Kharchu Centre Australia was established entirely for non-commercial purposes and is guided by a commitment to serve society through the preservation, study, practice, and sharing of the Buddha Dharma.
The initial foundation of the Centre was made possible through the generosity of Kyabje Namkhai Nyingpo Rinpoche, together with the support of early members, benefactors, and supporters.
Today, the Centre's ongoing teachings, retreats, events, facilities, visiting teachers, and community services continue to rely upon the generosity and voluntary support of our members, supporters, and friends.
Supporting Kharchu Centre Australia is a meaningful way to contribute to the cultivation of wisdom, compassion, and inner peace within our communities.
Your support helps ensure that:
