Daniel Troyak is Australia's first full-time Buddhist chaplain. Having gained certification in Clinical Pastoral Education (Pastoral Psychotherapy) and working as a chaplain for the last five years, Daniel has trained in Buddhist meditation and received mentorship from leading Buddhist teachers internationally. At their encouragement, Daniel has learnt to integrate traditional mindfulness meditation and contemplative skills in a therapeutic context that can be applied by anyone, Buddhist or otherwise, for emotional processing, healing and growth. His sessions offer the opportunity to gain a grounding in the key skills and resources needed for such inquiry in addition to personal counselling. Daniel maintains a daily meditation practice, leads group meditations sessions, receives regular guidance from his Buddhist teachers in India and is dedicated to continuing to develop his therapeutic training and practice. He is particularly passionate about making the tools that he has learnt for a happier, calmer and compassionate life available in his home state of New South Wales. If you have a medical problem requiring urgent assistance, contact your doctor or 000 (if in Australia or equivalent in your country).

As the owner and custodian of Yulo Kopa, it’s lovely to see our accommodation featured in Australian Traveller.

Writer Julie Ihle’s visit brought together two parts of my life that are closely connected: caring for this place and my work in Buddhist counselling.

Both share an intention to create space for people to pause, feel supported and reconnect with themselves. Through Buddhist counselling, I support people to explore their experiences with awareness and compassion. At Yulo Kopa, the rainforest, meditation and quiet moments offer space to slow down and reflect.

It means a great deal to see Julie capture something of that spirit, from welcome chai on the deck to a forest-bathing walk beneath the canopy.

Thank you, Julie, for sharing Yulo Kopa and celebrating the beautiful Port Macquarie hinterland.

I find this short video from His Holiness the Dalai Lama incredibly reassuring. He reminds us that through investigation, reasoning and consistent Dharma practice, we can gradually lessen difficult emotions and develop more wholesome qualities.

What I find particularly encouraging is hearing him say that he notices negativity diminishing in his own mind. Even after a lifetime of practice, he continues to see change within himself.

What a beautiful reminder that practice really does make a difference. Love this video. Let me know what you think. 🙏

A special moment from our Mystical Indonesia Tour 2026 with His Eminence Dorje Denpa Rinpoche.

Ancient temples, quiet meditation, and the opportunity to experience the Dharma in some of Indonesia’s most sacred Buddhist places. 🙏

His Eminence Dorje Denpa Rinpoche is currently travelling through Java and Bali with Buddhist Counselling on the Mystical Indonesia Tour, visiting sacred Buddhist sites, ancient temples, and many of the lesser-known holy places that continue to preserve Indonesia’s rich Buddhist heritage.

One particularly special moment was spending time in serene meditation at the magnificent Sewu Temple within the Prambanan temple complex—a place of extraordinary beauty, history, and quiet spiritual practice.

Thank you, Rinpoche, for blessing this pilgrimage and for so generously sharing the Dharma with us every step of the way. 🙏
