Awam Chandra Kirti Ling is a vibrant and inclusive Buddhist community in Perth, Australia, devoted to the study and practice of authentic Dharma teachings under the profound guidance of Khenchen Lama Rinpoche. Rooted in the living lineage of wisdom and compassion, our centre offers a sanctuary for learning, reflection, and compassionate action — welcoming everyone from newcomers to seasoned practitioners.

At Awam Chandra Kirti Ling, we believe that the Dharma naturally blossoms into compassionate action. Our community services are an extension of our spiritual practice — a way to bring the principles of loving-kindness and interdependence into everyday life across Perth and beyond.
