Indiana Buddhist Temple

Really friendly place! Positive energy. People there are open minded, and everyone is made to feel welcome. Anyone can come and meditate there and find peace in their mind. People socialize before and after the meditation, which is very very nice. Is a great place to meet spiritual minded people. The monks have a very kind caring energy. Even is a cute cat there, and I saw a goose too.

I had the great pleasure of visiting this place during a Katina ceremony (End of rainy retreat, month of November). It is wonderful to see Abbot Devananda Thero is maintaining the place with Theravada Buddhist standards with the help of Sri Lankan descendants in USA as well as lots of other local residents. This is a wonderful religious institute for anyone who would be looking for a quiet place to rest the mind or remind yourself of your practice. A walk in the garden would be so peaceful and transform your mind to another universe as you see all the great statues setup in the pathways. This is a recommended place for anyone who would like peace and tranquility.

This temple is an amazing place! When I first started going, I felt a little awkward but as a newcomer I was very welcome regardless of my background. Now I attend regularly for meditations, which are on Mondays and Thursdays at 6:30pm. The Dhamma (teachings of Buddha) classes on Saturdays at 2pm are very good as well! I love that it doesn't matter what religion you come from, what your life has been like, where you're from, who you are, or anything - the monks always make it clear that this is your spiritual home regardless of all that! I love Indiana Buddhist Temple!

Environment is calm & picturesque... You can find your inner peace by listening to Dhamma programs here...

Thanks
