Pledge Program
Join the DBT family! Every semester, Delta Beta Tau offers a twelve-week pledge program for SDSU students to dive deeper into meditation and Buddhism within a lively and supportive community.
The Delta Beta Tau Pledge Program is founded on the six principles of generosity, morality, patience, diligence, concentration, & wisdom.
When carried out in life, these principles, known as the Paramitas, provide the foundation for peace and happiness within the mind and heart. Over the course of twelve weeks pledges explore these principles, listen to guest speakers, participate in meditation retreats, and practice generosity via community service and volunteer opportunities.
The Spring 2024 Pledge Semester begins on Sunday, September 1st, and concludes on Sunday, December 8th. Pledges meet every Sunday from 7-9 PM PST and every Wednesday from 8:00-9:00 PM PST. Pledges are also required to attend 4 retreats on various Saturdays and must fulfill community service requirements. We will have multiple information sessions during the first few weeks of spring classes.
We look forward to welcoming new members!
