Who are we?
The Buffalo Zen Dharma Community (BZDC) is a group of people from the Buffalo, NY area.  We have come together to learn about and practice Zen Buddhism, and to offer this opportunity to others.  We are an affiliate of the Mountains and Rivers Order located in Mount Tremper, New York.

How do I join?
It does not take much; you just need interest, some meditation (zazen) training, and orientation to our practice.  If you have had little to no formal meditation experience, we offer instruction on the specifics of meditation and Zen liturgy in a group setting.  If you are interested in joining - or visiting - our group, please click on the "INFO@BUFFALOZEN.ORG" button below.  We also offer online instructions on meditation in the "Newcomers" page.

When will the Buffalo Zen Dharma Community meet again?
It is not clear when the Buffalo Zen Dharma Community will start meeting again in person.  However, the latest news from Westminster Presbyterian Church is that they are targeting June first of this year as the start date for in-person activities.  With the new COVID vaccines coming out recently, Dr. Fauci -- the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease -- predicts our usual way of life may return about mid to late 2021, if the vaccination rates occur as expected.  Until the specifics are worked out about how to safely meet without the spread of COVID, we will continue to only meet through Zoom events.  But don't let that stop you.  Come on in and give us a try by clicking the "INFO@BUFFALOZEN.ORG."  As more information come available, the latest news on the return of group activities will be first posted in our blog.
