Notes from an Appealing Buddhist

From Leeds Buddhist Centre on Sat, 1 Jun, 2013 - 23:13Day 3: Out on the Streets

It’s the end of the first week and we’ve all survived. Unfortunately two of our team - Amitasuri and Jamie - have been poorly and therefore unable to join us on the first few days of the Karuna door-knocking appeal. However we’re hoping that they’ll both be fit and well very soon.

I must say that, generally (and perhaps surprisingly) we seem to have enjoyed ourselves. Speaking for myself, I’m having a...

From Norwich Buddhist Centre on Sat, 1 Jun, 2013 - 10:05

On Tuesday 14 May, Padmavajra visited the Norwich Buddhist Centre on Sangha Night to launch the theme for the coming weeks: The Refuge Tree.

A change of time?

From Online Meditators on Thu, 30 May, 2013 - 16:56Hi all, we’ve had a bit of feedback of late that the time for online meditation no longer really suits people’s schedules, including several folk who have been attending regularly… So, given that, we were wondering if a shift to evening time in the UK/Europe would work better? That would mean starting sometime between 11am-12pm PST / 2-3pm EST / 7-8pm UK / 8-9pm Europe.

Please let us know your thoughts here or over on...
