Lake Lonsdale in the Victorian Wimmera
Lake Lonsdale is a large, shallow lake, 2.5 Km wide and about 8 Km long on the Mt William Creek. It is in the Grampians area about 12 Km North West of Stawell.
Since the introduction of the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline, the lake is no longer used by GWMWater for domestic or stock water supply, however it's still a key source of water for the environment and is currently 90% full.
Lake Lonsdale is popular free camping area right on the lake that is dog friendly and popular with caravaners. A well known recreational lake in the Stawell area, hosting a number of activities, such as boating, fishing, swimming and camping. Fish you can catch are Redfin, Yellow Belly and Trout.

The 5 precepts of Buddhism
In Buddhism, The Five Precepts are equivalent to a code of conduct or set of rules to follow if you're to live a truly Buddhist life. They're created to help people act morally in their day to day lives and help you reach enlightenment, this is the main aim of Buddhist teaching.
You can attempt all or just some of the precepts. The main thing is that you agree this is a guide to behaviour.
The Five Precepts are to undertake to develop in yourself the virtue, wisdom and mindfulness using the precepts to:
- refrain from harming living things, have respect for all life.
- refrain from taking what is not given, I will respect others property.
- refrain from sensual misconduct, any overindulgence in any sensual pleasure.
- refrain from false speech, lying or gossip and respect honesty.
- refrain from taking intoxicating substances and appreciate a clear mind.
