This is a Sri Lankan Buddhist Temple in the practice of Theravada Buddhist tradition in Sun Vally, California. The chief incumbent is a learned Buddhist monk well versed in Buddha Dharma and English.
Last Saturday and Sunday, Vesak celebration and Sheela program was held there.
Maithree Vihara is a small but growing Theravāda Buddhist center that is supported and serves the Sri Lankan community. The center offers meditation classes in English both group and individual by request. While services are in Sinhalese the monks I've met are fluent in English. One of the monks (Dhammaananda) is American and has been very generous with his time. I don't go often enough but I always come away with new understandings. If you are exploring meditation or Theravāda Buddhism Maithree is a great place to learn.
