Bluegum SanghaThe Bluegum Sangha is a Buddhist insight meditation community on Sydney’s North Shore. It supports its members’ development both as meditators and as practitioners of the dharma in all its aspects.
Currently, we meet at 7pm each Tuesday for meditation and dharma teachings at 14 Ridge Street, North Sydney. Please do not be late as the door will be locked at 7.10pm. It will be reopened at 8pm again for 10 minutes after the meditation. This group is for people who have some background in meditation and who are comfortable sitting for 45 minutes in silence. New people are welcome! The Bluegum Sangha is linked to Sydney Insight Meditators and Australian Insight Meditation Network. Visit the Bluegum Sangha website
