Buddhists
Boston University has several Buddhist groups which offer meditation, study, and other forms of Buddhist practice. During the academic year there is a weekly meeting on Thursday evenings from 7:30 pm – 9 pm in the Thurman room at Marsh Chapel. In the recent past the meeting is sponsored by the Boston University Buddhist Association, a non-denominational student organization that meets for discussion, study, and meditation. On a regular basis the Buddhist Chaplain, Rev. Dokurô Jaeckel, joins the meditation meetings, offers a talk, gives instruction, or answers questions. For the most current list of all Buddhist groups, please call the Student Activities Office at 617-353-3635.
