You Can Help To Make Padmaloka Dharma Talks Even Better

From Padmaloka Retreat Centre on Fri, 10 Aug, 2018 - 12:57

So far, 2018 has been another year of excellent Dharma talks given at here Padmaloka.

Great Ocean

From Lights In The Sky on Wed, 8 Aug, 2018 - 15:20

Another Lights in the Sky film is in being made.

It is about Sangharakshita and friendship. There are two distinct elements: 50% his life as a series of friendship stories, the narratives are his own words, read offscreen by an actor*; 50% documentary interviews with people in different relationships to him. 

* Uniformity of delivery plus great audio quality is good for intelligibility, intimacy and empathy.

If you can please support the production by going to http://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/great-friendship

A great film begins when you leave the theatre

In 1988 I was working in a classical music publishers in London and leading a life immersed in the arts – in and...

5 Years of the Buddhist Centre Online: #7 Triratna and the Internet

From Buddhist Centre Features on Fri, 27 Jul, 2018 - 10:59

“Media used to be one way. Everyone else in the world just had to listen. Now the internet is allowing what used to be a monologue to become a dialogue. I think that’s healthy”. - Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
