Predominantly situated in Sydney, Australia, MITRA's current members are UniBodhi (Sydney University Buddhist Society), MacBuddhi (Macquarie University Buddhist Society), and UTS (University of Technology, Sydney) Buddhist Society.〔 The name of the network MITRA, stems from a Sanskrit word meaning "friend".〔 Since 2004, MITRA has held Buddhist annual conferences which brings together a range of international and local speakers and topics. == MITRA Buddhist Conferences == The MITRA Youth Buddhist Network has, since 2004, organised an annual Buddhist conference. Traditionally held in July, except for 2010 which was held in May to coincide with the Buddhist Festival Month celebrations run by the Buddhist Council of New South Wales. The MITRA Buddhist Conference is convened by a member, or members, of MITRA inviting local and international learned speakers to give talks and lead discussions at the Conference. Run and managed entirely by volunteers, the MITRA Buddhist Conference relies on the goodwill of the community in keeping the Conference sustainable. Between 2004 and 2009, the food for the Conference was donated by the community including the ''Friends of Mitra'', a conglomerate of elder lay Buddhists, and local Sydney vegetarian restaurants. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MITRA Youth Buddhist Network」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
