International Practice Week: make your Dharma Doors poster!

Posted by Development Team on Wed, 8 Aug, 2018 - 14:10

Many thanks to Sanghadhara for creating this Dharma Doors mega-poster for the International Practice Week: Turning Arrows Into Flowers (22-29 September 2018)

You’ll see 2 options, one for A4 paper size, one for ‘Letter’ as used in the USA etc. The pdf has 8 pages, each with the front doors of 6 Triratna Centres, and which join together to form a lovely symbol of our international Sangha (see IPW overview picture).

To reduce dukkha, please bear in mind:

print in colour
don’t print double-sided - it...

Thanks Mokshini,

This video introduces FutureDharma Fund and Zoe Lim, a Mitra in Singapore whose life has been changed by online Dharma.

Showing it to people in your sangha will help them to feel part of a global movement for change, and would be an excellent prelude to asking them to give.

Do contact Liz or I (or your local FutureDharma Champion of course) for any more help.

Warm wishes,

Amalavajra
