This is the facebook page for the University Buddhist Association at UCLA
We're a non-sectarian Buddhist group that welcomes Buddhists and non-Buddhist of all faiths and traditions. All of our activities and events are offered free of charge, and encompass several broad goals:
* Bringing the Sangha to the University: In order for students to meet and learn about a variety of Buddhist traditions, the UBA sponsors guest speakers from many of the local temples in Southern California to come and speak at UCLA.
* Bringing the Students to the Community: The UBA utilizes the passion of young Buddhists to reach out into the larger community and become connected beyond our college years. We sponsor field trips, retreats, and community service to forge the bonds that can last a lifetime.
* Bringing Buddhism to the Discussion: The Buddhist teachings offer a perspective not found elsewhere, and a set of responsibilities unique to the religion. The UBA participates in interfaith events and dialog to make the Buddhist voice heard and understood.
