Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

From Portsmouth Buddhist Center on Tue, 23 Apr, 2013 - 12:54If actions speak louder than words, what do our consumer purchases, food choices and habits of body tell us about our cravings and our ability to avoid harm to ourselves and others?

This week we will be exploring guiding ethical principles that can help inform our decision-making and focus of our practice efforts.

Join us for Sangha Night, Wednesdays, 7 - 9 pm.
40 Congress Street, 4th floor. Doors open at 6.45.
All are welcome!

Correct Skype Account Details

From Online Meditators on Sun, 21 Apr, 2013 - 10:16Hi all, just a quick note to clear up any confusion about the correct Skype account to use for online meditation!

The correct user is thebuddhistcentre.com. Its full profile name will be listed as the buddhist centre online.

If you search for us you may come across another admin account we use for European calls, so please ignore it. We’ve renamed it so it’s extremely clear not to connect with us there.

Hope that helps!

Afrikaans Triratna Threefold Puja Read by Acalaraja

From Community Highlights on Mon, 15 Apr, 2013 - 12:43
There’s something about hearing a familiar text in a language other than your own that can be quite arresting. Words you can feel the meaning in even though you don’t, exactly, ‘understand’; words shared between people and also between peoples: across cultures, beyond language. Here’s Achalavajra with one of the first fruits of the Afrikaans translation initiative reading the Threefold Puja (the English version of the text can be found here). Wonderful sound, wonderful shared sense…
