The SFBC offers a relaxed and friendly place for people who want to participate in a Buddhist community or who want clear, ecumenical instruction about Buddhism and meditation and how they can apply it in their life. We provide a comprehensive program of Buddhist meditation classes and courses, Buddhism courses, writing and performance events, yoga and meditation classes, weekend and week-long meditation retreats, nonresidential daylong meditation and study retreats, and more.
The SFBC is part of the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order (FWBO), an international Buddhist network of public centers, communities, ethical businesses, and social projects. Founded in England in 1968 by Urgyen Sangharakshita, FWBO draws inspiration from the whole of the Buddhist tradition and is based in central teachings that are common to all the main schools. At the heart of the FWBO is the Western Buddhist Order, made up of men and women from diverse backgrounds who have dedicated their lives to the practice of Buddhism. The FWBO system of practice emphasizes the following spiritual practices in addition to both samatha and vipassana meditation: friendship/sangha, creativity/art, study, and ritual.
