Buddhist Church Of Santa Barbara
Whether you’re a lifelong Buddhist, want to reconnect with your Buddhist roots, or are curious about Buddhism come join the Buddhist Church of Santa Barbara (BCSB)’s monthly Lunch and Learn Series: Buddhism and Pop Culture.
Join us at our picturesque temple on Santa Barbara’s Eastside on Saturday March 8th at 10 am for a Buddhist service that includes moments to quiet the mind, chanting of traditional texts called sutras, and hearing a dharma message from our priest. In this special “Obon” service we will also remember all of our deceased ancestors At 11am, we’ll explore the Buddhist lessons around ego, attachment, and enlightenment in the hit CBC/Netflix comedy, Schitt’s Creek, and will answer any questions you have about Buddhism. A complimentary lunch with refreshments will be served.
BCSB is part of the 800-year-old Jodo Shinshu tradition of Japanese Pure Land Buddhism and has been rooted in Santa Barbara since 1913.
