Siri Sadaham Buddhist Monastery

Venerable Dodamgoda Siri Sumedha Thero, a veteran Buddhist monk from Sri Lanka who came to very first time to the UK in 2004, first thought about establishing a Buddhist Monastery in Buckinghamshire on the 30th November 2017.

Miraculously, it took only 20 days for the Venerable Thero to convert this idea to a reality and on the the 21st of December 2017 the Venerable Thero came in to residence at the monastery with the blessings of the Most Venerable Kamburawala Siri Rewatha Nayake Thero who is the chief incumbent of Scotland Buddhist Vihara & lay community from Aylesbury and High Wycombe areas. An inauguration ceremony was subsequently held on the 1st of January 2018 to coincide with the Duruthu Full Moon Poya Day.

Situated within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in South Buckinghamshire, the location of the Monastery amongst the rolling hills and the serene plains provides a peaceful and tranquil setting for meditation and reflection.
