The Canterbury Buddhist Group
Started in 2023, The Canterbury Buddhist group has been a fast growing dynamic context of practise. Run by a dedicated team of experienced practitioners, we meet every week for meditation and reflection on the Dharma. We often practice with a particular emphasis on ethics, meditation and our relationship with the natural world. Everyone is welcome at our classes, talks and events.
Connect with Buddhism in Canterbury
Saturday Morning Meditation
Join us every Saturday for an open morning at the Friends Meeting House in Canterbury to learn Buddhist meditation, deepen your existing practise and meet like-minded people. Open to all, no experience required.
Full Moon Rituals
Every month we meet under the Full Moon to explore Buddhist Ritual and meditation. These are beautiful evenings of food, practice and celebration. We will be starting these again soon.
Monthly Talks
Once a month after our Saturday meditation class we host a talk exploring some particular aspect of Buddhist life or practice. Anyone is welcome regardless of experience. Information about each talk is always shared on our Whatsapp!
