Meditation & Buddhism in Norfolk
A small but dedicated group of people, running a growing programme of events in person & online
Welcome to King's Lynn Triratna
KING’S LYNN TRIRATNA (KLT) is a small network of practicing Buddhists whose organized events take place in King’s Lynn and who additionally come together as part of a broader network around West Norfolk, meeting and practicing together in person and via Zoom.
KLT is part of ‘TRIRATNA’ a worldwide Buddhist community founded in 1968 to create a model for living Buddhism in modern Western life.
Who we are
King’s Lynn Triratna was first set in motion by Dharmachari Udara, an ordained member of Triratna, in 2014. In time, other Triratna Order members came to teach in his place, notably Sanghaketu, Viprasanna and a little later Viryashalin. Together with the faithful group of practitioners in and around Kings Lynn, they continued to offer classes, courses and occasional weekend retreats in Buddhism and meditation.
Passing through many changes, not least the recent pandemic and including the Ordination of Sammudita and arrival of Sinhadevi, it currently comprises a core team of ordained members of Triratna together with a growing but dedicated group of practitioners, running a programme of classes, courses and occasional weekend retreats.

Events happening soon
(see EVENTS page for more detail)
Following our DHARMA DAY FESTIVAL at Thornage on Sunday 13 July which around 50 people from Norwich and King’s Lynn attended, we enter a quieter summer period.
For some Buddhists associated with the King’s Lynn Buddhist group, it is retreat season and the teachers at King’s Lynn have been on meditation retreats whilst others within the group have been doing similar, attending ‘in-person’ and online retreats. (if you’d like to know more about retreats, contact us).
Upcoming events in/around King’s Lynn are outlined on our EVENTS page and include a monthly puja and weekly online meditation and there will be monthly ‘live’ Yoga & Meditation sessions coming up in the autumn.
