Finding Community in Sangha

The importance of practicing together and how the sangha supports our individual and collective awakening.

sangha community practice

In Buddhism, the Three Jewels are Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. The sangha - our spiritual community - provides essential support on the path of awakening.

Why Practice Together?

While meditation can be practiced alone, there’s something powerful about sitting with others. The collective energy of a group in meditation creates a field of awareness that supports everyone present.

Our Dublin Community

Our sangha meets regularly for:

  • Group meditation sessions
  • Dharma discussions
  • Retreats and special events
  • Community service projects

Join Us

Whether you’re new to meditation or have years of experience, you’re welcome in our community. We believe that everyone has Buddha nature and can benefit from practice and fellowship.

The path of awakening is both deeply personal and inherently communal. Come sit with us and discover the support that sangha provides.
