Welcome to the Humanistic Buddhism Centre

“Humanistic Buddhism is what the Buddha taught, what is essential to human beings, what purifies, and what is virtuous and beautiful.”

The Humanistic Buddhism Centre (HBC) at Nan Tien Institute is dedicated to advancing the study, practice, and application of Humanistic Buddhism in Australia. Grounded in the teachings of the historical Buddha and inspired by humanistic values, we contribute research, publications, presentations, and community events that encourage the application of Buddhist wisdom to our shared lives.
