About Us

Exeter Triratna Meditation & Buddhism Group is part of the Triratna Buddhist Community and has been offering Buddhist teaching to the people of Devon for almost two decades.

Triratna draws on the entire Buddhist tradition and expresses itself freshly and dynamically. We have been offering courses in Buddhism and meditation for more than 40 years. Our teachers are practising Buddhists who strive to incorporate the ideals of Buddhism into daily life. Our activities are open to everyone, you don't need to be a Buddhist to come along and see what we're doing and get involved.

We aim to make the Buddha's teachings applicable to the modern world and accessible to all.

The Team

All of our activities are planned by a committed team of volunteers, Mitras and Order Members, who have a strong connection to Triratna. Our classes are run by Order Members or by Mitras who are actively training for Ordination.
