From Free Buddhist Audio on Tue, 12 Jun, 2018 - 14:54

This FBA Dharmabyte is entitled ‘The Buddha and Reality’ from the talk ‘The Buddha, God, and Reality’ by Sangharakshita.

Having considered Buddhism (in ‘The Buddha - Man or Superman’ and ‘Evolution: Lower and Higher’) in terms of process in time, and the Buddha himself as a historical figure, Sangharakshita now uses stories and quotations from the scriptures to show that the Buddha and reality are ultimately outside time. Talk given in 1966.

Good news about Ratnasuri

From Order Connection on Mon, 11 Jun, 2018 - 12:19

Dear Friends,

We’ve got good news.

Ratnasuri’s operation has gone well. Done with an epidural (not general) anaesthetic, she had three screws inserted to mend her broken femur. Her broken arm is in a sling and is being left to heal naturally. Her pain is well managed.

World Meat Free Week 11-17 June 2018

From Buddhist Action on Mon, 11 Jun, 2018 - 07:41

Some of us may be choosing to go vegan for a week - the whole month - or longer; but you might have friends or family who find the idea of giving up meat quite off-putting and unsettling! 

This website allows you to calculate your impact of going meat free for a day or more a week - it also has lots of recipes and might be a helpful way in to give up animal products!

Thanks...

What will you change to make a difference in our world?

From Buddhist Action on Sun, 10 Jun, 2018 - 19:55

We have been talking about BAM for several weeks in our small sangha, starting with a planning sangha evening and then Manidhara lead a mantra evening on Padmasambhava.  We invited Amalaketu from Colchester for the day to inspire us with ecological and environmental issues and we all pledged our eco precepts.

 We decided we would run a stall on Deal Market every Saturday in June and our tag line became “What will you change to make a difference in our world?”...
