Important Notice

Out of a abundance of caution and mindful of our members and the general public the Kelowna Buddhist Temple will cancel/postpone all services until further notice. In case of emergency please contact a Temple Board Member.

Let us all do our part to keep loved ones and the community safe and healthy.

Welcome

We welcome you to visit our Pure Land Buddhism Temple and share in the teachings of Shinran Shonin. One of the most common questions we receive is "Is your Temple open for anyone that is interested in Buddhism?" - Most definitely, we have a resident Minister who will welcome your questions. "Yes" most of our services are in English and we do chant in English (see below). "Yes" kids are welcome! The other very common question relates to "Meditation?" - please see the upcoming events section of the web site or read our newsletter for dates and times.

We encourage you to contact us, should you have any further questions about our religion, Temple activities or wish to be included in our distribution list for our free monthly newsletter. Please check the Links , where you will find articles and information of further interest if you are new to Buddhism and looking for information about Jodo Shinshu Buddhism. One day let us welcome you as a member of our Temple. Links to other Okanagan Temples listed below.

The Buddha felt that the Dharma should be freely given and while this is so, it costs money to maintain the Temple, because of that we rely on your generous donations however large or small (see Donate Today link below).
