The Buddha described his teachings as an open invitation. We consider everyone who engages with Triratna activities a friend, and Triratna centres are welcoming and friendly settings to explore what Buddhism has to offer. For people who want to get more involved, they offer a rich experience of friendship and community.
At a Triratna Buddhist Centre you can learn meditation, study the Buddha’s teaching and engage with culture and the arts. We also promote projects in which Buddhists live and work together and explore how to bring awareness and kindness into the whole of our lives.
Many friends of Triratna go on to become Mitras in our community every year. Some also go on to join the Triratna Buddhist Order itself after asking to undertake ordination training.
