This is a great opportunity to those who could not make it to the LTU Buddhist Society 8-week course we are currently running on campus. Or for those who wish to learn more about Dharma practice. Even though it is near the end of semester with exams and assignments coming up, investing a few hours a week in to Dharma practice can develop insight and happiness that will last a life time and more.

This is a 6-week Introductory course on Buddhism, conducted by the RMIT Buddhist Society

Starting date: Sunday, 16th May 2010
Venue: Loophole Community Centre in Thornbury (easily accessible via tram 86 from uni)
