Welcome to the Maryland Kadampa Buddhist community. Drop in for meditation or a special day or weekend retreat.

Vikatadamshtri Buddhist Center is a Kadampa Buddhist Meditation Center in Baltimore. Located near the Baltimore Museum of Art and Johns Hopkins University, the center provides meditation classes and teachings in various parts of Maryland, including Annapolis, Baltimore, Bel Air, Bowie, Columbia, Lutherville, and the US Naval Academy. We also offer several classes in Pennsylvania.

Taught by qualified local teachers, the meditation classes are very easy to understand and apply to our daily lives. The classes are suitable for both beginners and more advanced meditation practitioners.

Don't hesitate to check out a meditation class this week and see for yourself!

  • We regret that The Sanctuary, where we have been holding meditation classes in Lutherville, has closed. As of now, classes in Lutherville are cancelled, but please keep checking our website because we are trying to find a new location for the meditation classes.
