The roots of '''[[Buddhism]] in [[Poland]]''' can be found in the early 20th century in the nation's connections to the origin countries of the religion, like [[Vietnam]],<ref>[http://nguoiphattu.com/?id/343/ba-lan-dai-le-vu-lan-tai-thanh-pho-krakow Ba Lan: Đại lễ Vu lan tại thành phố Krakow]</ref><ref>[http://nguoiphattu.com/?id/304/ba-lan-chua-thien-viet-warszawa-to-chuc-le-vu-lan Ba Lan: Chùa Thiên Việt - Warszawa tổ chức lễ Vu Lan]</ref> [[China]], [[Japan]], and [[Korea]].<ref>[http://www.vesakday.mcu.ac.th/vesak50/article/pdf_file/03_Buddhism_in_Poland-17May.pdf Buddhism in Poland - by Joanna Grela]{{dead link|date=November 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} = Joanna Grela, Buddhism in Poland, in: ''Buddhist Contributions to Good Governance and Development'', ed. by Phra Dharmakosajarn, Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya University Press, Bangkok 2008, p. 274-281</ref> After [[World War II]], primarily expatriate Poles joined various Buddhist groups and organizations.

Today all of the principal schools of Buddhism including [[Mahayana]] ([[Zen]] and [[Jodo Shinshu]]) and [[Tibetan Buddhism]] can be found in Poland. Movements like the [[Triratna Buddhist Community]] are also active in the country. Umbrella organizations like the [[Buddhist mission]] (''Misja Buddyjska'') and the Buddhist Union of Poland unite more than two dozen groups of Buddhists. The [[Diamond Way]] centers founded and directed by [[Lama Ole Nydahl]] are also active in Poland. Nydahl gave teachings on Buddhism to audiences in Poland twice every year since his first visit in 1976.<ref>https://www.diamondway-buddhism.org/buddhism-in-poland-with-lama-ole-nydahl-warsaw-april-2013/</ref><br />
