Study Circles

Crowds inspire; circles transform. Our sutta-study and practice groups meet in homes and halls by suburb and language — eight or so people, one text from the Canon, honest conversation, tea.

Circles now meeting

Circles meet in homes and halls across Sydney and online. Ask below and a circle guide will tell you what is running near you. Exact addresses are given after you join, not published.

How a circle works

  • One discourse per meeting, read in translation on the translators' own site.
  • Two questions: what does it say, and what would it mean to test it this fortnight.
  • No fee, no attendance record, no obligation to speak.
  • Guides are trained lay members and follow the community's child safe policy.
