OUR VISION FOR THE NEW SITE
It's been a huge piece of work by our team at Dharmachakra to re-imagine a broad, sometimes sprawling platform that's developed more or less organically over the course of a decade. And to help it find a new, more ordered shape that still reflects the principles and priorities of a very broad international, multilingual and multicultural community.
Our vision for the platform is to be the equivalent of an operating system for Triratna on any device, enabling many kinds of channels, groups, pages and standalone sites to arise. All featuring rich and beautifully diverse content that shows by example why Buddhism offers such a compelling alternative for anyone seeking to live an ethical life centred on the values of mindfulness and compassion.
Or if you prefer a less technical image, to help surface the great stream of Buddhist practice that flows year round in our community. Across generations, through the lives of ordinary people taking part in, figuring out, handing on together a spiritual tradition. One that spans three millennia and helps make sense of the world from a position of kindness, patience and grace.

SUPPORT AND ROADMAP
The new Buddhist Centre Online is just getting started - and we have a long to do list! Anyone can try the new site today. Our provisional full launch date for the site is early in the new year.
If you have technical issues using the site, please contact us here and we’ll do our best to support you and resolve things. While we're in this preview phase some issues can likely be resolved by switching back to the old site, but do feel free to let us know anyway. It’s useful if you can send us a note of what device and web browser you are using.
If youʼve any feedback on the new site – or suggestions for content – we'd be glad to hear your thoughts. Please first switch to the new site to read our roadmap and release notes for some major known issues with this beta preview. We won’t be able to respond to all feedback but we promise to give it our attention and we may be in touch for more information.
We really hope you enjoy using these new spaces - on your phone, tablet, computer, and any future devices coming down the line... 🙏
