Our mission

Supporting all beings in awakening to Wisdom and Compassion through the cultivation of Non-clinging awareness

The aim of the Trust is to foster the realisation of Awakening, as described by the Buddha, for the benefit of all beings.

This aim will be achieved generally by encouraging and providing for the wholesome investigation of the many paths to realising this Awakening, and specifically through the provision and maintenance of a Study and Retreat Centre in New Zealand.

The Trust acknowledges the vision of the Venerable Namgyal Rinpoche in the establishment of its aims.
