Sunrise with Ibex

From Croydon Buddhist Centre on Sun, 28 Oct, 2018 - 00:00
In this talk Prajnanandi discusses her path towards ordination, focussing on the intertwined themes of friendship and communication. She evokes the magic of Akashavana and how it feels to be there, and takes a little diversion into how it feels to have Manjusri as a sadhana practice. This talk was given at the Croydon Buddhist Centre in October 2018 as part of the regular Saturday morning sangha class.

The Big One: Preview of the Keynote Talk, 'Seek Truth, Release Life'

From Triratna Young Buddhists on Sat, 27 Oct, 2018 - 17:59

This year Prajnaketu, Triratna’s Young Buddhist Co-ordinator, gave the keynote talk on the Big One on the theme of  ’Seek truth, release life’. In it he explores the Buddha’s Noble Quest and how we might follow his example by using the metaphor of leaving the palace so that we can go beyond into a truly ‘religious’ life.  Here is Prajnaketu kicking his talk off - the full talk will follow soon!
