About us
Perth Subud Centre is one of several Subud centres
located throughout the UK, most of which hire space to local businesses
and community groups for various uses. The primary use of these
centres, however, is to provide space for their local Subud group.
Subud is an international association of men and women who share
a unique spiritual experience known as the latihan (an Indonesian
word meaning exercise) - which is a form of worship or religious
experience. Subud, however, is not itself a religion but rather
brings people from all faiths together.
Subud houses usually contain at least two large halls. The Subud
group will use the halls for the spiritual practice usually two
evenings a week and sometimes once also at the weekend.
Many people who hire Subud houses or visit exhibitions, events or
gatherings held within them, comment on the peaceful, light feeling
to be found in the houses - a side-effect of the latihan.
Highland House, now the Perth Subud Centre, was bought by Subud
Britain in January 2003. Previously the premises was used as an
army communications centre and, before that, was a family home.
