Sangha is a word that describes Buddhist communities of monks and nuns, lamas, and lay people. The Sangha also preserves the Buddha's original Dharma teachings, and provides spiritual support and guidance for the Buddhist community.
In addition to practicing meditation and Dharma teachings, the Sangha gathers for many other reasons including social events, community projects, celebrations, and more.
