About Ashoka Centre
Ashoka Centre, established as a registered charity in 1997, exists to serve the people of South Devon and Cornwall. It is home to a spiritual community of around 10 people dedicated to achieving peace through following the Kadampa Buddhist Path.
Everyone is welcome into this peaceful and blessed environment. Visitors from all backgrounds come to find rest and refuge from the difficulties of busy modern life, and draw inspiration from spiritual friends, including western Buddhist monks and nuns.
Ongoing Buddhist meditation classes, study programs and meditation retreats at Ashoka Centre offer the opportunity to discover our innate capacities for wisdom and compassion. The Buddhist practices taught here are suitable for everyone. Letting this special advice touch our hearts, we learn to become happy and to lead meaningful lives that have the power to greatly benefit others.
Ashoka Centre is entirely funded by donations from those attending classes at the centre and branches as well as kind benefactors who appreciate the work we are doing. If you feel inspired to support Ashoka Centre by making a donation, please click the Paypal logo below. Thank you for your kindness.
