Beyond Limits - West London Buddhist Centre Weekend Retreat

From West London Buddhist Centre on Wed, 6 Jul, 2022 - 15:37

Join us on this weekend retreat as we try to go beyond our habits and views and all the ways we limit ourselves. As we practise together and connect with the open landscape, open sea and open sky at Othona we will experience more spaciousness in our hearts and minds.

‘As far as the sky pervades, so does awareness.

As far as awareness extends, so does absolute space’.

Chairs' Letter – June 2022

From College of Public Preceptors on Sun, 3 Jul, 2022 - 22:51

Dear Order Members + friends,

This month I seem to have emerged more fully from the era of Covid lockdowns. As well as my regular visits to South Wales, I’ve also been to London, Stratford-upon-Avon (wonderful to get to the theatre again: Henry VI and Richard III), and Leek in northern England (checking out a possible property for Tiratanaloka).
