I just wanted to check out a local store for a meditation cushion filled with buckwheat hulls so I stopped by Buddha For You. The entire staff made the experience very pleasant and answered any and all concerns I had. I ended up purchasing both a Zafu and Zabuton.

Also, I arrived right before the Dharma Bum Temple - Free Mediation which was a great experience followed by a pleasant discussion on "Right Mindfulness" [Mindfulness (Sati/Awareness), Ardency, and Alertness] so I learned something new and useful as well.

I have nothing but great things to say about this place!

We had an awesome experience here. As you can see on the website, it's pretty much what you'd expect as a Buddhist gift and book store (incense, Buddhas, ringing (singing?) bowls, bracelets, etc.) but since it's inside a Buddhist meditation center and run by some super nice folks it was a particularly cool visit. We also liked the legit antique statues and other art which were pretty cool and different - although a lot of that antique stuff was WAY out of our price range. The storekeepers Jeff and Maggie also help run the Buddhist center and Jeff gave us a tour of the place and filled us in on some of the organizations history - and the history of the building (while it's a "Buddhist temple" its actually housed in a little old church). The temple tour was very cool - different meditation halls, various shrines and awesome Buddha statues throughout. Jeff said they offer free meditation classes daily and that the temple is open to the public. It's called The Dharma Bum Temple which is pretty interesting! The whole thing was a little old world and unique of an experience. It's only a few blocks from the downtown University Heights strip, but also tucked away in a residential neighborhood. I was there for almost an hour and didn't even buy anything! But I will be back to wander the store and temple again for sure and will endeavor to buy something :). I highly recommend for buying stuff or just a peaceful and interesting experience.

The most beautiful and peaceful place in San Diego. They have a great collection and at great prices not found anywhere else in this region. Oddly enuf, it is right next to Von's in the Aztec Shopping Center. But lots of free parking! I love this place!
