Theosophical Society in Australia:

National Convention in Sydney January 2027

Theme

Peace for a Shared Humanity: 

Exploring Unity, Truth & Meditation

Special Guest Speaker:

Trân-Thi-Kim-Diêu

General Secretary (interim) of the TS in France
Former Chairperson of the European Federation of the TS

Join us in Sydney this January for the 2027 National Convention of the Theosophical Society in Australia — a rare week of study, fellowship and shared reflection at a time when the world quietly asks us to look within.

Shared humanity, as described, is the common human experience uniting people; fostering caring and compassionate relations through a sense of co-belonging. It's enhanced by awareness, listening, and sensitivity to verbal and non-verbal cues. We all recognise the importance of connecting with others. It touches the essence of wisdom, in which we learn to understand our own nature through our relationships, discovering the Self within the Not-Self. HPB stated that Theosophy is Altruism, and we may add, a mutual opportunity to live a life of hope, freedom and fairness. 

Set in the peaceful grounds of St Andrew's College, this is a chance to step away from the everyday and gather with fellow students and friends in warm inquiry.

LOCATION

St Andrew's College
19 Carillon Ave, Newtown NSW 2042
Directions ∇

Want to share a room with someone? 
You're very welcome to — just a couple of things to keep in mind:

♦     Each room has only one double bed, so you and your room-mate will need to be comfortable sharing the same bed.

♦     The second person still needs to book the Meals Only Package ($530) to cover their meals.

The accommodation cost can be split between the two of you privately — just arrange it directly with your room-mate.
