How will we survive?

Mon, 18 Sep, 2023 - 11:09

Picture one of your teachers, someone you admire, respect, and trust, who has helped you on your spiritual journey. Now imagine that they felt forced to step away from their role due to a lack of support or funding.

We are highly fortunate that our private preceptors, public preceptors, and Dharma teachers have options and will not find themselves having to choose between their commitment to Triratna...

We don’t know where the Dharma will be needed in the future. 

Just a few years ago we couldn’t have predicted the current thirst for the Dharma in Latin America, or that a Triratna group would want to start in Trinidad or Tokyo. We need to be ready to respond to where the Dharma is needed.

Since our launch in 2016, FutureDharma Fund has grown to support 45 international Triratna projects, including those of the India Dhamma Trust, and raised over £1,200,000. This year we aim to raise £500,000 for this vital work.

The Death of, and rejoicing in Moksacitta

Wed, 4 Jan, 2023 - 11:04

I am writing to let you know of the death of Moksacitta, on 29th December, our friend and colleague at FutureDharma. All of us in the team are deeply saddened and shocked by her swift illness and death; a mere three months ago she was participating in the team and carrying out her responsibilities with her customary good cheer and chirpiness. Moksacitta was 56 and was ordained into the Triratna Buddhist Order in...

Some personal reflections from Amalavajra, FutureDharma’s Fundraising Director, and Vajratara, India Dhamma Trust’s Chair

Amalavajra writes:

‘Last week I was with Lalitavyuha at the Royal Sussex Hospital in Brighton, UK, as the combination of pneumonia and Covid stole his last breaths. It was a privilege to sit amongst his loved ones and chanting his yidam Green Tara’s mantra. This donor had become a good friend.
