Portland Friends of the Dhamma is a Buddhist lay community open to all levels of mediation practitioners from beginners to advanced. We practice in the Thai Forest tradition of Luang Por Chah, and are associated with the Abhayagiri monastery.
Welcome
We hope you enjoy this four-minute video created by our Guiding Elder and former Spiritual Director Sakula Mary Reinard after the pandemic. These days, there are programs 7 days a week, Jessica is holding the space on Sunday, kids are welcome with RSVP, and you might be greeted by a group 50-strong! But a warm welcome, connection to Abhayagiri, and focus on the Buddha-Dhamma-Sangha endure.
