Buddhist/Meditation Center (Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Holly Springs: chapel, centers, area)

[LeavingBklyn]

I am looking for a Buddhist &/or meditation center in the Raleigh area. The closer to Holly Springs the better. I am aware of The Kadampa Center on Etta Burke Blvd, but I am looking for one that has more classes available on weekends and evenings.

Please let me know if you are aware of any centers, or if you know how I may find out about them.

Thank you!

A nifty thing called "Google" instantly brought up this page for me of many sites in NC, with lots of contact info.

A new center is opening in Hillsborough:

There is an existing Zen Buddhist center just north of Chapel Hill:

The Zen Center of Chapel Hill website (above) has a list of other centers in North Carolina, with links to their websites.

Thanks a whole lot Francois. Never heard of Google.

On a less sarcastic note, some of the centers in the area no longer exist, others are too far away from me. I was hoping that someone knew of a place that I did not know of yet.

Hi LeavingBklyn - I just came across this the other night. I haven't gone to any meetings, so I can't provide any first hand account, but it seems interesting. I'm thinking if you get plugged into this group, there has to be some people who can provide some good insight or at least steer you in the right direction.

Good luck, friend!

Thank you! I have never used MeetUp before and will look into it.
