Voir le printemps arriver à Taraloka

From Centre Bouddhiste Triratna d'Auvergne on Fri, 9 Jun, 2023 - 08:28

La semaine de mon arrivée en mars, il a neigé. Six mois comme volontaire à Taraloka, une grande organisation, pas mal d’économies, l’aide de la sangha et de mes amis, et un saut vers l’inconnu, ou presque (je n’étais venu ici que deux fois, il y a plus de dix ans…). La communauté qui s’occupe du centre de retraite est formée en ce moment de 10 femmes, dont trois membres de l’Ordre. Je suis la seule à être là pour...

In this introductory talk to The Sutra of Golden Light, Saddharaja gives us an historical overview of the sutra, and its extraordinary reputation, plus a story about his own meeting with the sutra in 1983. He introduces chapters 1&2 and also suggests how we might best approach the sutra ourselves in order to experience its riches.  Excerpted from the talk Entering Another World, part of the series The Sutra of Golden...

Reinstating Jayakirti

From Order Connection on Wed, 7 Jun, 2023 - 12:37

Dear Order Members 

Following her suspension I am pleased to announce, as the public preceptor to Dhammacharini Jayakirti, that I consider her to once again be an Order member in good standing and that she is ready to be reinstated as an Order Member. 

Jayakirti was suspended from the Order due to issues concerning the second precept. Through these difficulties her communication with Order Members, including her preceptors - Jnanasuri and myself - broke down. 

Since those times, Jayakirti has confessed, made amends, is now in harmonious...

Dhammacharini Buddhadassini

From Order Connection on Wed, 7 Jun, 2023 - 12:36

Dear Order members, 

After much consideration, I have regretfully decided, as the public and private preceptor, that Dhammacharini Buddhadassini from Phulgaon, Maharashtra, can no longer be considered a member of the Order. 

I have the support and backing of the Indian public preceptors Kula and other Indian Order members, many of whom have tried to help her over the years. 

Dhammacharini Buddhadassini has a long-standing gambling addiction. This has led to her breaking the second precept, concealment, deceit and untruthful speech . 

The last time I met Buddhadassini face-to-face...

This is the first in a series of videos that have been created about autism in Triratna. Prajnanandi, who is autistic, explains what autism is, tells Ratnaguna how it is to be on the autism spectrum within the Triratna Buddhist Community, and how we can make it easier for people on the autism spectrum to thrive in our sangha.⁠ Some of you may have had your own experiences - positive and negative in the sangha and beyond. We hope you find...
