Buddhist churches
Buddhist churches are community centers where practitioners gather to promote understanding and practice of Buddhism's teachings. They serve as places for meditation, learning, and rituals that honor the Buddha and his principles, such as compassion, mindfulness, and wisdom. These centers vary worldwide, reflecting different Buddhist traditions like Theravāda, Mahāyāna, or Vajrayāna, and often offer classes, ceremonies, and social activities. Their purpose is to support individuals on their spiritual path and foster a sense of community, helping people apply Buddhist insights to everyday life for personal growth and harmony.
