Hi I would like to know about buddism. Since young I have never know any religious teachings. I also used to struggle if I should follow Christianity but my family is purely from buddism    which is why I hv come to final decision to join buddism. I attend subang jaya buddist temple but I don't know most of them.... I am age 23 and I know most them join since young. So is there any people here who can teach about buddism  around my age or friends? Anyways I can't read mandrin but can speak little...... Thx.

Welcome. biggrin.gif

Since you would probably be looking for something that is in English, have you considered the Sri Lankan Buddhist Temple in Brickfields?

https://www.facebook.com/MahaVihara

They have various activities such as Dharma talks, Sunday school, etc.

You mentioned the Subang Jaya Buddhist Temple, is it the same as this one -
http://sjba.org/
Seems they also have various activities. But perhaps you prefer something else.

Here is a Malaysian Buddhist directory - http://www.parami.org/malaysian-buddhist-directory-online/

Others notable associations you can join -

Young Buddhist Association of Malaysia
http://www.ybam.org.my/v2/en/

Tzu Chi Foundation
http://eng.tzuchi.my/

You can also do your own reading. There are a lot of resources online. Here are a couple -

http://www.tricycle.com/

https://thebuddhistcentre.com

Youtube also has many videos/talks on Buddhism.

Young Buddhist Association of Malaysia is quite active.

Actually, you can just join a temple that has activities.

Like the Sri Lankan temple in Brickfields.
