We have a dream.

We would like to bring a steady stream of wise, experienced meditation teachers to Aotearoa New Zealand to offer teachings, inspiring some people to learn to meditate and others to deepen their practice of meditation.

Can you relate to a dream like this? 

Linked with a nationwide community of practitioners who support each other in our practice as we awaken to what is, Aotearoa Buddhist Education Trust is a charity through which funds are raised to bring buddhist teachers to New Zealand, mainly from the insight meditation tradition.

By giving dana, donating to cover these teachers’ travel expenses, your generosity is making the teachings of Sidhatta Gotama, the man known as the Buddha, more affordable for others.

You can help realise this dream by donating into the kete (basket) that holds the general fund, or toward a teacher’s air fare.
