Welcome to the Home of the Triratna Buddhist Group in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, a place to learn and practise Buddhist meditation and the teachings of the Buddha in the context of spiritual friendship
The Triratna Buddhist Community in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, is part of an international Buddhist movement with its origins in the UK. Originally founded in 1967 as the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order, the movement was renamed the Triratna Buddhist Community in 2010.The Shrewsbury Group was started in 2003 as part of an outreach project from the Birmingham Buddhist centre. Since then the group has grown into a flourishing Sangha (Buddhist spiritual community) with about 40 active members from across Shropshire, including several members of the Triratna Buddhist Order who teach Buddhism and meditation at our regular group meetings.
Coming up soon...
Some members of the Sangha have started a weekly market stall in the covered market in Shrewsbury. It is located on the first level, selling Buddhist artefacts, books on Buddhism and a selection of second-hand clothes. The stall will be open on Wednesdays throughout February and March. Feel free to drop by for a browse!
