Burma-America Buddhist Association The Burma-America Buddhist Association was formed in 1980, with the sole purpose of promoting Theravada Buddhism in North America. It was the first Burmese Buddhist organization in the East Coast of United States. It has established a center known as "Mingalarama" for the study of Buddhism with respect to its philosophy, its culture, and its heritage. The association maintains a small library with both English and Burmese books on Buddhist religion. Dhamma talks and Buddhist lessons to youths are given every other week at the center. |
