About us

A group for Buddhists of any tradition to meet and chat.

Why have a group like this?

  • It's not a meditation group. There are plenty of those already, but there aren't many opportunities to just relax in a completely informal setting and spend time with people who share your values and interest in Buddhism.
  • This meetup isn't linked to any particular teacher or organisation, so you won't feel any subtle peer pressure to adopt a set of beliefs or practices, revere a particular teacher or founder, or follow an agenda set by an inner circle. Members of Buddhist groups are of course welcome, but equally welcome are independent Buddhists who follow their own unique paths.

If you are not a Buddhist then this isn't the right group for you, but happily Oxford has some great opportunities for newcomers to learn about Buddhism:

If you decide at some point that you have become a Buddhist yourself, you will be very welcome to join our group! 😊
