Buddhist Dharma Center of Cincinnati
Whether you are just beginning to explore Buddhism, meditation or have been practicing for years, you are welcome to join us in a quiet sitting, discussion, reading, or exploring the Dharma together. Little by little, so much can be discovered and resolved.
Openness and inclusivity are at the heart of Dharma teachings and practice; the center is committed to kindness and respect for others, regardless of race, religion, cultural expressions, gender, gender identity, age or abilities. All are welcome!
