A Spiritual and Cultural Home for the Bhutanese Community
The Bhutanese Centre is a place where our community finds a true sense of belonging – a second home away from home. We aim to reflect the spirit of Bhutan by creating a peaceful and welcoming space filled with calmness, cultural pride and the warmth of Bhutanese hospitality.
Preserving Bhutanese Identity & Culture
Through the Bhutanese Language and Culture School, we are committed to teaching our children the Bhutanese language (Dzongkha), traditions (Driglam-Namzha) and cultural values (Tha-Damtshi and Ley-Judrey) so they remain connected to their roots. Alongside language classes, we also organize spiritual and cultural events, creating meaningful opportunities for the Bhutanese community to come together, participate and strengthen our shared identity.
Spiritual Guidance and Buddhist Practices
BBCC provides spiritual and pastoral care, Buddhist ritual services such as Rabney, Lhabsang and Thruesel, Rimdro’s, Astrology (Mo-tâb Tśe-tâb) and Horoscope (Kyetsi) checking. We also teach various Buddhist practices such as Nangchoe, Droenchoe (Tara) practice, Yoedpamey and Chöd practice sessions to Bhutanese residents in Canberra and neighboring cities.
