About Us

Our activities started in 2007

The East Kent Buddhist Group is part of the Triranta Buddhist Community, formally the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order, FWBO.
The group started in August 2007 with a talk given by Danapriya at The Royal Hotel, Deal.
The talk, called "It's not out there", was attended by 78 people and from this we have grown into a thriving Buddhist Sangha.

We have beginners Meditation courses and meditation days.

There are weekly classes.  On Mondays we have "The Dharma Class" and
on Wednesdays "Sangha Night" as well as special Day Events and Festivals.

Members of the East Kent Buddhist Group regulalry attend Buddhist Retreats in East Sussex, Suffolk, Norfolk and other parts of the UK.

There will also be the second annual retreat specifically members for called "Loving Life More" for 3 nights from 30th July 2010.
