Our group is loosely affiliated with two Buddhist groups in Ann Arbor, MI, which is 50 miles away. One group is the Zen Buddhist Temple of Ann Arbor, which is part of the Buddhist Society for Compassionate Wisdom (Korean Chogye lineage). The other is Deep Spring Center, in the Vipassana tradition. We incorporate elements of both traditions in our teaching and services. The Toledo Buddhist Sangha has been meeting since 1999.
