The Tibetan Buddhist Society was formed in 1979 by its spiritual leader, Venerable Geshe Acharya Thubten Loden. Geshe-la ("la" is a respectful suffix) studied at Sera monastery from which he graduated at the highest possible level. He subsequently completed further studies at Gyumed Tantric College. Residing in the principal branch at Melbourne, Geshe-la visits the Brisbane branch from time to time and on these occasions he gives teachings, initiations as well as a variety of forms of advice and assistance to Dharma followers.

The Brisbane branch is opening a new centre at the following location:

The Annex
Communify
10 Moreton Street
Paddington

The Annex is adjacent to a park with a childrens playground. Enter via the side entrance. The gate is to the right of the Hall

The main regular event ( Graded Path teachings given by Charles Topp on Tuesday nights) will resume soon.
