Brahmavihara-Arama (Balinese: ᬩ᭄ᬭᬄᬫᬯ᬴ᬶᬳᬭᬅᬭᬫ), also known as Vihara Buddha Banjar (Balinese: ᬯ᬴ᬶᬳᬭᬩᬸᬤ᭄ᬟᬩᬜ᭄ᬚ᭄ᬭᬃ) due to its location in the Banjar District of Buleleng, is a Buddhist temple and monastery in the mountains near Lovina in North Bali, Indonesia.[1]

Due to its location within Bali—a predominantly Hindu island—this temple has significant Hindu influence in its statues and architecture.[2]
