Women of Faith: International Women's Day at BMAG -1

From Triratna in the Buddhist World on Tue, 26 Apr, 2016 - 11:19

Samachitta, until recently Chair of Triratna’s Birmingham Buddhist Centre, spoke at an International Women’s Day interfaith event at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery (BMAG) on 10th March 2016.

Here’s the text of her talk, ‘Women who have inspired me’ in which she talks about the Buddha’s aunt Mahaprajapati, Dipa Ma and Triratna’s own Maitrisara, Birmingham’s mitra convenor for women - whose picture currently appears next to a Triratna kesa in BMAG’s exhibition ‘Faith in Birmingham’.

'Standing shoulder to shoulder with one another' - an appeal from Vessantara

'Standing shoulder to shoulder with one another' - an appeal from Vessantara

From Abhayaratna Trust on Tue, 26 Apr, 2016 - 08:04

‘The whole sense that Sangharakshita gave me of the Order was of something through which we were deeply involved with one another’s lives, were really standing shoulder to shoulder with one another, caring for one another not just spiritually but on all levels, and that’s really stayed with me. That spirit is still alive in the Order today, and I feel that The Abhayaratna Trust is one way we can really express it.’

Introducing the Triratna Translations Board

From Triratna News on Wed, 20 Apr, 2016 - 15:42

Bhante’s 90th birthday fundraising last year raised well over £100,000 for the publication of his Complete Works, a job which is well under way and to which Bhante himself added more money specifically for translations. (You can too!) Suvannavira writes from Moscow about the work of the newly formed Triratna Translations Board.

“In a world where so many seem to speak English, why bother translating books by Bhante and his disciples into other languages? Imagine coming...

Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water


This famous Zen saying captures the magic of spiritual growth and development.

One’s life might look very similar as one understands one’s life and experience more and more fully and as one’s heart opens wider and wider. We may very well still be parents, partners, employees and whatever roles and functions we fulfil but our experience of these roles and the life that we live changes profoundly. 


Freedom, contentment, peace...
