From Buddhism Chat
For any seeking refuge in the triple gems: the Buddha, the dharma, the sangha.
Welcome to #buddhism!
This began as a channel on the Undernet Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network many years ago.
It is now linked via a relay bot to #buddhism on a number of other networks.
The name of the relay bot is gem3. Users on your local server will appear the same as usual, but users from remote servers will appear like <gem3> [net] <remote_user> Hello World! That is the bot, network name in square brackets, the user speaking, and their message.
The idea of the channel is to support practising Buddhists in their practice, and provide a place online to discuss Buddhism in a friendly, inclusive, relaxed environment. Think of it like a coffee shop next door to a monastery.
