Raja Yoga Meditation
@ Hobart
The Hobart Meditation Centre is a beautiful old house set in a lovely garden setting and is located in New Town. Although our Centre is very active, visitors often comment on the atmosphere of tranquility and warmth.
We offer The Brahma Kumaris' core curriculum Raja Yoga Meditation courses, positive thinking courses (Choose to be Calm) and regular Tuesday presentations on a variety of topics, sometimes with special guest speakers. The Centre is open for meditation in a welcoming, peaceful environment on Sundays 6.30-7.30pm.
Regular meditation programs are held at City of Hobart venues, UTAS and in various locations around the state. Lunch-time ‘Serenity in the City’ meditations are held in the CBD.
We hope you will visit us!
