Study the Buddha's teachings

After you have atten­ded a second or third level Buddhism course, deep­en­ing your prac­tice through study­ing in a small group may be right for you

These groups are very pop­u­lar and some­times there is a wait­ing list

There isn’t a fixed charge for tak­ing part in study but we encour­age you to fin­an­cially sup­port the Manchester Buddhist Centre — see the giv­ing page

Found­a­tion Course

This weekly ongo­ing course aims to give a thor­ough ground­ing in Dharma study and is for those who want to put Buddhist teach­ings into prac­tice in their life

Mitra Study

This is a three year study pro­gramme requir­ing con­sid­er­able com­mit­ment. It is for mitras and you would need to have com­pleted the found­a­tion course first.

Mitra is a Sanskrit word mean­ing friend. In this con­text, a mitra is someone who is act­ively involved in activ­it­ies within the Friends of the West­ern Buddhist Order, and who intends to con­tinue prac­tising the Dharma in this community.
