From Forum för klimat och miljö on Fri, 24 Oct, 2025 - 14:45

Hej. Här kommer en rapport från andra träffen i EkoDharma forum 21 oktober 2025. 

Kvällen började med att vi samlades och stillade våra sinnen genom en kort meditation som hölls av Corre. 
Därefter samtalade vi i små grupper kring följande frågor:

  •     Hur känns det nu den senaste perioden, när du tänker på klimatfrågan?
  •     Vilket stöd har du av Dharma och sanghan?

Dear Friends,

Sadly Khemavira died in the Queen Elizabeth hospital Birmingham in the UK at about 6.15pm on Thursday 23rd October 2025.

The Zoo, The Palace and the Grind

From Sheffield Buddhist Centre on Thu, 23 Oct, 2025 - 00:00
What is it like to the dwell in these realms,and do we want to escape them? And what does it mean to be truly human?" Join Sanghajiva as we explore these questions at Tuesday's Sangha Night. During this theme we'll be looking at The Wheel of Life, a living symbol that encompasses the entirety of existence. We'll learn how to escape from the prison and sufferings of Samsara, towards ever increasing positive and expansive states of being, towards the ultimate goal of Awakening. We'll be taking a contemporary look at this ancient symbol, visiting it's realms and their beings from the depths of the hell realm to the heights of the heavenly abodes, and asking what do these realms look like in our modern society and world? Expect support for home practice, practical ideas of how to bring these traditional teachings into your everyday life, and reflections on how to make your Great Escape!

Health of Khemavira

From Order Connection on Fri, 17 Oct, 2025 - 12:39

Dear Order members,

Our dear friend Khemavira from Birmingham in the UK was re-admitted to hospital yesterday, 16th October, with double pneumonia.

Satyapala, Maitrisara and myself all spent several hours with him talking, holding his hand and chanting the Tara mantra. His condition had stabilised before we left but it seems unlikely that he will survive this serious illness in addition to his other very serious health conditions.

Please remember him in...
