Bodhinyana Buddhist Monastery

A humble and inspiring beacon of kindfulness stands at this monastery of monks. In addition to the hall that the monks receive visitors in, there's a large and calm energy meditation hall for some peaceful meditation and reflection, and the surrounding grounds in the bush are also serene and relaxing.The monks and visitors are kind and friendly, and all are welcome to get involved in the activities for common good. They offer daily offerings of alms to the monks, followed by helpful teachings on life, the opportunity to speak to and ask the learned and wise monks questions, and the sharing of the remaining and plentiful food amongst the visitors for a pre-noon meal. Be sure to check the website before you visit to see what's scheduled, timings and etiquette.There's a regular community that visits on various days during the week, with the weekends and public holidays being busier. It's a great oasis away from the city to bring one some inner peace.

Perfect place for meditation and enquiry into the nature of mind.

Fantastic place to get back your peaceful mind.Beautiful drive journey towards the monastery.Wonderful surroundings and lovely designed structure.Plenty garden and parking space. Free entrance to all visitors.Be mindful and quiet as there are meditation huts in the area.

I am staying here for a two week retreat. It is a peaceful and serene place. The people are wonderful, the monks amazing and It is perfect for contemplation and meditation.

The monastery which Ajahn Brahm built. It is a well-maintained, peaceful and beautiful monastery.Came here to perform dana for meal of the day. Not difficult, just bring your prepared food to the kitchen and put on plates. Then they will bring out rice and empty plates for the pindapata, you just get an empty plate and spoon, scoop some rice to your plate and offer to the Ajahns when they came for the pindabata.Lots of parrots who are friendly.You can go to the Dhamma hall to sit and meditate after the meal.

A wonderfully peaceful place for contemplation.

Amazing place, very peaceful and beautiful. Heaps of native birds and even a friendly kangaroo. Shared morning tea was a luxurious banquet. So nice spend time with the monks and helpers. Really helped me to get my sense of peacefulness and Zen back.

A mind relaxing place away from the noisy and busy home. A place for Buddhists and even anyone need to realise the tranquillity that Lord Buddha taught.
