Buddhism is a legally recognized religion in Slovenia and it is followed by more than 1,000 Slovenes, though no official numbers are established as the previous census did not include Buddhism specifically. Although still small in absolute numbers (though Slovenia has only 2 millions inhabitants), Buddhism in Slovenia enjoys widespread acceptance if not popularity. As in most European countries, different branches and schools of Buddhism are represented by groups of varying sizes. The largest traditions represented are Mahayana and Vajrayana. There is a Buddhist temple in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia.〔http://www.dharmaling.org/en/ljubljana-center Temple in Ljubljana〕 In Slovenia, the competent administration dealing with religions is the Governmental Office for Religious Community of Republic of Slovenia,〔http://www.uvs.gov.si/en Office for Religious communities of Slovenia〕 and a newly approved regulation has been enacted in 2007.〔http://www.uvs.gov.si/en/legislation new law regulating the religious communities〕 ==Buddhist organisations== Buddhist religious communities registered to the Office for Religious Communities of the Government of Slovenia include: * Buddhist Congregation Dharmaling, registered in 2003.
