Day 1: Summoning the World to Buddhahood

From Adhisthana on Sat, 18 Mar, 2023 - 20:43

It is beautiful to have the privilege to practice with this wonderful group on the ‘Summoning the World to Buddhahood’ retreat at Adhisthana. We gathered for the first session last night in the shrine room with others joining us online. We went around and introduced ourselves and it was powerful to hear everyone’s connection with the Bodhicaryavatara – for many a much loved and seminal text.

I recalled my first encounter with the text in 1987 when Nagabodhi led a weekend on...

Opening: Summoning the World to Buddhahood

From Adhisthana on Fri, 17 Mar, 2023 - 21:54

This week at Adhisthana we are holding a retreat on the Bodhicaryavatara: Summoning the World to Buddhahood.

Vidyamala will be sharing stories from the retreat throughout the week here, and I hope this can be a way of connecting with each other and with the beautiful aspirations behind Santideva’s work, no matter where you currently are.

I look forward to sharing in an exploration of the Bodhicaryavatara together, allowing the beauty, power, and challenge of the verses to more deeply inform our practice for the benefit...

Celebrating International Women's Day

From Windhorse Publications on Wed, 8 Mar, 2023 - 13:00

Today is International Women’s Day. Marked annually since 1911, it’s a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.

This year’s theme is ‘Embrace Equity.’ Equity is not the same as equality. Both are important, but they are very different. Equality means each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities. Equity recognises that each person has different circumstances, and allocates the...
