SMU Dhamma Circle is a student initiated Buddhist Society which aspires to be a community for students, Buddhist and Non Buddhists alike, to learn and live life through the practice of mindfulness, compassion, and wisdom. As a non-sectarian Buddhist society, we welcome every student to join us in our Dhamma sharing sessions and activities.

At Dhamma Circle, we have weekly sharings facilitated by our own students, alumni or guest speakers who are monastics or experienced lay practitioners. The topics discussed are catered for students, aiming to support us in navigating the challenges encountered during our young adult years. Sharings are conducted in a cosy and relaxed setting to encourage active participation and foster peer learning. We also feature meditation, an essential practice in Buddhism, in our regular activities, with each sharing starting with a meditative practice and having at least one guided meditation workshop every semester. During recess week and summer holidays, we will organise overnight mindfulness retreats where we can deepen our practice, along with temple tours where we visit some of Singapore's many beautiful monasteries and temples.

If you are looking for a safe and inclusive environment to learn and discuss Buddhist teachings or are just looking for a wholesome community to be a part of, look no further. We can't wait to welcome you at our sessions!
