For the Wellbeing of Humanity
Charity
The Supreme Buddha’s life and teachings have inspired many around the world to be kind-hearted and generous individuals. A random act of kindness by one person can be the catalyst for positive change in the world. Therefore Mahamevnawa Sydney actively encourages people of all ages to carry out benevolent activities wherever possible. The activities that we organize include Clean up Australia Day events, Blood donations with the Red Cross, Tree planting and Visiting aged care centres. You can join us in this joyous meritorious effort and reap the benefits in this life itself.
Blood Donation
Blood Donation Program Organised by MBMC of Perth
With compassion and in hopes of recovery for those who are suffering from life-threatening circumstances which require blood, a Blood Donation activity is organised by the Mahamevnawa Buddhist Meditation Monastery of Perth each year.
This meritorious activity has now been ongoing for the past 4 years. With the direction and help of the Reverend monks at the monastery, our devotees, and the Red Cross in NSW these events have been organised at the 8/1296 Albany Hwy, Cannington Lifeblood Cannington Donor Centre.
MBMC gratefully acknowledge the support and assistance extended to us by Australian Red Cross Blood Service to make this series of events a success. We respectfully share all the merits collected during conceptualising, organising and completing Blood Donation activities with everyone involved and who appreciate such endeavours.

Clean Up Day
A volunteer group of the Mahamevnawa Buddhist Meditation of Perth organises and supports Clean Up Australian Day.
This was the fifth consecutive year that this event was organised by us in line with the Cleanup Australia Day since 2019. The cleanup activity of the park commenced by volunteers first observing Pan Sil offered by Rev Munindawansha Thero. Despite the weather challenges dressed accordingly along with gloves and bags to brave the weather to make the Clean Up Australia Day activity a success. All volunteers were quite eager to clean the park and bring it back to its natural glory. It was a difficult task, but with the help of all volunteers, we were able to accomplish our objectives. Volunteers were offered morning tea and refreshments. Cleanup activities continued past midday to complete the undertaken task.
This special project was a big success, everyone who participated in this great meritorious deed can indeed rejoice.
Mahamevnawa Buddhist Meditation Centre, Perth will continue to take part in this yearly event and encourage all Children, Youth and the Adults to join in this activity.
Charity Service
With eyes of wisdom, the Lord Buddha saw how certain actions which arise through wholesome qualities of the mind can have positive results and how certain actions which arise through the defilements in the mind bring negative results. If we do something which stems from craving, hatred, or delusion it creates fear and anger in others as well as within ourselves. These negative actions will attract negative results for us. If we do something which stems from the wholesome qualities of the mind, if it creates no fear and hatred in the world, it will attract positive results for us. The Lord Buddha saw that if one gives food, he gives the benefits of extended life span, complexion, well-being, and strength (Ayusha, Warna, Sapa, Bala). As a result of this action, he or she will receive much happiness and well-being throughout this life and the next.
