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!
The Offerings

directed and financially supported by its members (anyone who shows up and takes part!)
Maintaining a weekly schedule
of a variety of session formats to meet the needs of everyone from newcomers to long-time practitioners
Providing instruction
from experienced sangha members in in basic Buddhist teachings and simple sitting and walking meditation practices common to all Buddhist traditions
Sharing a compassionate approach
to life with the larger community and striving to embody ethical living as presented in the precepts
Creating opportunities
to deepen one's practice through Dharma study, periodic extended meditation sessions, open discussions, and Dharma talks by local teachers and sangha members
Supporting members' needs and interests
by the formation of small group explorations around a topic, book discussions, or other common interests
