From blind to selfless selfing

From Shabda Articles on Thu, 28 Aug, 2025 - 12:51

There are four parts to the essay posted here as a pdf.

First, I will outline what I mean by ‘selfing’ and ‘minding’ and in what sense the way Buddhists tend to talk about self and mind seems problematic to me. Can we usefully think about ‘self’ in a way that does justice to the Buddhist project? I will argue that to be alive is to be engaged in a continuous process of ‘selfing’ by which an organism, in unbroken interaction with...

Sangharakshita’s Poetry (Dharmabytes Podcast)

From Free Buddhist Audio on Tue, 26 Aug, 2025 - 10:52

Vishvapani has been studying, reflecting upon, and living out the Dharma life as presented by Urgyen Sangharakshita, Triratna’s founding teacher, for over 40 years. To mark the fourth anniversary of “Bhante” Sangharakshita’s death in 2018, this new audio essay delves deep into the heart of what Vishvapani calls a “unique and strange” intuitive approach to Buddhism that, at its best, seems to capture and vibrate with the essential vital energy of the universe. Excerpted from the essay...

Urgyen Art Festival

From Triratna News on Mon, 25 Aug, 2025 - 16:24

Art in tribute to Urgyen Sangharakshitaji


Urgyen Sangharakshita regarded art as a gateway to spiritual insight.


This exhibition invites you to journey into the theme of Nirvana as envisioned by artists. A creative homage where art and Dhamma converge in celebration of his enduring legacy.

Sangharakshita (1925–2018) founder of Triratna Buddhist Community made significant contributions to modern Buddhism and played a meaningful role in Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar’s Buddhist movement.

His integration of Buddhist tradition with contemporary thought, coupled with his advocacy for the empowerment...

Review: Reimagining Buddhism: Understanding Sangharakshita and His Teachings by Vishvapani (2025)

From Windhorse Publications on Mon, 25 Aug, 2025 - 10:18

With The Complete Works of Sangharakshita being rounded off with the publication of its Concordance at the end of 2024, Vishvapani’s
Reimagining Buddhism seems like the icing on the cake. It is a beautiful book, meticulously researched, and sensitively written for both those who knew Sangharakshita well and others who have only recently come across his name, or have yet to discover the joys of Triratna.

Vishvapani (Blomfield) is the editor of Challenging Times: Stories of Buddhist Practice When Things...
