Looking back on Adhisthana's 2022 International Course: A film by Prasadachitta

Last year, we had the privilege of hosting a one-month international course for Order Members from around the world, aiming to provide training, support, and the opportunity to forge deep friendships and connections within the international sangha.

Led by a team of Order members who live and work at Adhisthana, participants delved into the four lineages - inspiration, teachings, practices, and responsibility. There was also training in leading study groups and creating a culture of feedback; hopefully giving participants the confidence and...

Help Maitripa bring Amitabha to Adhisthana

By Caroline I P on Thu, 25 May, 2023 - 16:00

Suvajra, Vimaladasa and Maitripa have asked Chintamani to make a painting of Bhante’s vision in the cave. They need 4000 pounds and need your help in raising that money. Do you want to contribute 25, 50 or 250 pounds? Do you want to share this project with your friends in the order and movement? That would be fantastic!

Adhisthana in WWF Wildflower Meadows Feature

I just wanted to share with you this video produced by the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) on Wildflower Meadows. A lot of the footage from this video was shot at Adhisthana. The sections about bees, sheep and others. There’s also an interview with our very own Buddhist ‘monk’, Sanghadeva.

Kath is the lady who has grazed her sheep on our land since 2020 (they’ve just arrived again this week). Rory has helped us recently establish a wildflower meadow...

Songs from Silence Retreat 

24th-28th August

Frogmill, Nr Throwleigh, Devon

“We must bear silence before we can feel in our bodies the deep joy of what the world is always already singing to us”

Led by: Mokshayogin, Sraddhadipa, Jo Spence, Joe Hill and yoga/movement with Ruth Coutinho.

Starting with the premise that vibration is the beginning of all things, this retreat will explore how we might work and play with sound, resonance, vibration and the voice as Dharma practice.

Together, we will explore how harmony singing and vocal play can support us...

Support Suvajra to bring Bhante's vision to Adhisthana

By Caroline I P on Mon, 15 May, 2023 - 16:00

In 1949 Bhante’s vision in the Virupaksha Guha cave was life-changing. His vision of Amitabha holding the lotus convinced him that it was time to seek formal ordination and join the lineage of the Buddha.

Help Suvajra bring Bhante’s vision to Adhisthana and share this project with your friends: Honouring Bhante

Sanghahelg 28 april – 1 maj 2023

By Viryabodhi on Sun, 7 May, 2023 - 08:50

Under sista helgen i april samlades 6 personer för att ta hand om Dharmagiri. Vi tog ner träd, rensade i rabatter, beskar rosorna, samlade upp grenar, eldade, klöv ved, hade mycket fina samtal runt matbordet i gröna huset, mediterade så klart och njöt av rymden, våren och mycket mer.

Tack till alla deltagare och alla som besöker och tar hand om Dharmagiri vid andra tillfällen – Dharmagiri och Dharma tar hand om oss.

We are excited to share another conversation between Ratnaguna and Prajnanandi as they delve deeper into the topic of Autism and the Triratna Buddhist Community. After receiving a positive response to their first discussion, they have decided to record three additional episodes to explore the nuances of being on the autism spectrum. In these episodes, they will discuss how we can make small but meaningful changes to support neurodiverse individuals to thrive in our Sangha.

This episode specifically focuses on sensory processing,...
