All Welcome!

Our Centre is a member of the New Kadampa Tradition founded by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. The Centre, based in Rondebosch, was established in 2007.

Our website gives information on our weekly classes, day courses and retreats and other events that we run on a regular basis under the guidance of our Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Pagpa.

Whether you are interested in Buddhist teachings or simply wish to learn some meditation techniques to use in your daily life, the classes and courses at Tushita Centre and our branches will be of benefit.

We all wish to experience peace and happiness and to be free from stress, anxiety and anger. Through training in meditation we can learn to cultivate peaceful and happy states of mind and free ourselves from stress, anxiety, anger and other painful states of mind.

"If our mind is peaceful, we shall be happy all the time, regardless of external conditions, but if it is disturbed or troubled in any way, we shall never be happy, no matter how good our external conditions may be. External conditions can only make us happy if our mind is peaceful. We can understand this from our own experience. For instance, even if we are in the most beautiful surroundings and have everything we need, the moment we get angry any happiness we may have disappears. This is because anger has destroyed our inner peace."
