‘Reimagining Buddhism’ coming soon in 2025!

From Windhorse Publications on Thu, 3 Apr, 2025 - 11:10

We are delighted to give you a preview of an important new book by Vishvapani, which is due out in August 2025.

Reimagining Buddhism: Understanding Sangharakshita and his Teachings is a sparkling, deeply felt and penetrating account of the English Buddhist teacher, Urgyen Sangharakshita (1925–2018) – one of the most complex and brilliant figures in modern Buddhism.

SEE FAB: Sustainable Environment on Earth for All Beings

From Triratna in the Buddhist World on Tue, 1 Apr, 2025 - 13:06

Here comes an environmental audit tool for Buddhist organisations, developed as part of the European Buddhist Union’s SEE-FAB (Sustainable Environment on Earth for All Beings) project.

Intended to be used by Buddhist centres and organisations wishing to reduce their environmental impact, its purpose is to highlight important areas of consideration and inspire quick fixes and broader organisational change.

The checklist is freely available in many European languages and covers five major areas:

  • planning for sustainability
  • energy use
  • water use
  • resource use, and
  • biodiversity.


The list is intended...

Adhisthana is hiring for two roles

From Adhisthana on Mon, 24 Mar, 2025 - 10:30

Could you be our next cook or do our publicity?

Bhante Urgyen Sangharakshita envisioned Adhisthana as a place of blessings, where the worldwide Triratna Buddhist Community would gather and engage wholeheartedly with his radical vision of the Dharma in all its breadth, depth and clarity. As we move out of the 10th anniversary year of Adhisthana’s opening and into celebrating the 100th anniversary of Sangharakshita’s birth, our founder and teacher’s vision remains dynamic and alive.

Central to unfolding this vision are Adhisthana’s two single-sex...

£6,000 raised help raise another £2,000 to reach the target

Ratnavandana is a much loved and appreciated meditation retreat leader, kalyana mitra, preceptor to 29 people and friend to many others. She worked in the Order and Movement from 1980 until 2006 in various roles - at a time when there were no Triratna workplace pensions or opportunities to save for later life.   

Ratnavandana has been living in the depths of rural Wales for the past 17 years – and is therefore completely dependent...
