Bridging the Gap between Education and Insight

'Many methods lead to the Path; however, fundamentally there are only two: reason and practice. To enter by reason means to realize the essence through instruction and to trust that all living things share the same true nature..To enter by practice refers to four all-inclusive practices: Experiencing injustice, adapting to conditions, seeking nothing, and practicing the Dharma.'
-- 'The Wake-Up Sermon of Bodhidharma'
(Translation by Ven. Dr. Wonji Dharma)
Buddha Dharma University, the seminary of the Five Mountain Zen Order, is a unique institution of higher learning that focuses on continually forging opportunities to experience a contemporary, in-depth and non-sectarian study of Buddhism, while also promoting the knowledge and understanding of the various word traditions, schools and cultures of Buddhism.
Therefore, programs are taught and mentored by scholars and masters from a variety of traditions, which takes advantage of America’s unique diversity of Buddhist practice and presentation.
Buddha Dharma University provides the opportunity to experience a profound, meaningful and rewarding path to Buddhist scholarship and enlightenment.
We are staffed by Buddhists (including monastics as well as married, ordained clergy) from many diverse walks of life, each willing, qualified, and happily able to guide students along the Buddhist scholastic path. Many ordained Buddhist monastics from each of the three major schools of Buddhism (Theravadan, Mahayana and Vajrayana) are involved in guiding the continual process of the refinement, development, and formation of our programs.
If you believe Buddha Dharma University is right for you, we encourage you to apply. If you are accepted, and become one of our students, please come with a Beginner's Mind: willing to learn..and dedicated to seeing the Dharma unfold in your own life.

Ven. Dr. Wonji Dharma, Mahastavira addresses the 2016 Commencement Ceremony.

Service to our Student Body

We have had many students Graduate since 2008, yet none were offered the participation in a formal commencement ceremony. as of December 2015 the Board of Regents has committed to offering two formal Commencement Exercises each year. As our coursework expands and our reach to students continues we are constantly striving for improvements in our service to our academic community.
Additionally, for our students who cannot travel we will offer two on-line 'Without Walls Precepts Ceremonies' and two 'Without Walls Commencement Ceremonies' for the participants as well as the Graduates from Buddha Dharma University.

Wake Up!

'When you are deluded, you are on this shore. When you are aware, you are on the other shore. However, once you know your mind is transparent and you see no appearances, you are beyond delusion and awareness. In addition, once you are beyond delusion and awareness, the other shore does not exist.'
-- 'The Wake-Up Sermon of Bodhidharma' (Translation by Ven. Dr. Wonji Dharma)

Ven. Dr. Wonji Dharma, M.S. appoints Ven. Do'an Prajna as the new Dean of Student Affairs.
