Buddhist Society of Western Australia Trust Access Awareness | Dennis Sheppard | 18 July 2025
Dennis Sheppard has been involved with the Buddhist community since 1976, since joining the Buddhist Society of WA as a young man interested in meditation and spiritual practice. He went on to serve multiple terms as President, as well as serving in other capacities including designing several buildings for both the monastics and lay community. Dennis’ talks delve deep to explore reality, deep meditation and the meaning of life. In recognition of his immense contribution to the Society, Dennis has been awarded lifetime membership.
Every year, the monastic community (Monks and nuns) go on a three month retreat called the “Rains Retreat” from mid July to mid October. During this period, they do not visit our centres for teachings as it’s a time for deepening their own practice. While the monks and nuns are away, we will have some interesting guest speakers coming in to give the Friday Night talk.
Dust in Our Eyes 2025 (Rains Retreat Speakers' Series 2025) Hear stories of everyday dhamma as told by monastics and lay practitioners from various Buddhist traditions.
