A Jewish Buddhist is a person of Jewish ethnicity who practices a form of Buddhism, with or without simultaneously observing Judaism.
Some practice forms of dhyana, Buddhist meditation, chanting, or spirituality. An individual may identify with both Judaism and Buddhism in terms of their religious practices. In many instances, the person may be ethnically designated as Jewish while practicing Buddhism as their primary religion. In the 1994 book The Jew in the Lotus, Rodger Kamenetz introduced the term JewBu or JUBU. Similarly, many also use the terms BuJews or BuddJews to refer to themselves.
