The Brazil Buddhist Society (Sociedade Budista do Brasil) was officially founded in 1967, by members of Theosophist Society of Brazil. In its previous statements it was included the main mission to bring into knowledge all the Buddhist Schools and the culture of Buddhist countries.

Despite it was initially presented with a generalist proposal, in its time evolution our Society constituted itself as a place for refugee in Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha, accordingly to the Pali Canon (Tipitaka) and to the teachings and practices of Theravada School.

The present mission of our Society is to be a reference as a Study Center of Theravada Budhism in regional and national levels, thus contributing in the spreading of Buddha Dhamma, Lord Buddha's Teachings.

Casa de Dharma - Sanatana Dharma Saranam, the Eternal Dharma Refuge, is a Buddhist meditation center.

Since May, 1991 Casa de Dharma promotes practice of Vipassana meditation, and the study of Dharma according to Theravada Buddhist tradition (the teachings of the Buddha).

A Comunidade Buddhista Nalanda é um espaço criado para o entendimento e prática dos ensinamentos primevos do Buddha. Buscamos redescobrir os ensinamentos originais do Buddha, investigando as expressões mais antigas de seus ensinamentos, bem como as linhagens de transmissão dos mestres que, através dos séculos, trouxeram o ensinamento precioso até os dias atuais.

O Centro de Meditao Buddhista Nalandarama situa-se a 40 minutos da cidade de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, e a contraparte, no campo, do Centro de Estudos Buddhistas Nalanda, um centro dedicado divulgao da Mensagem do Bem-Aventurado Buddha para o povo brasileiro.
