Dharmabytes: Confidence in Our Ability to Gain Insight

From Free Buddhist Audio on Mon, 4 Sep, 2023 - 11:00

This is a quietly passionate talk by Jinapriya on the quicksilver nature of the Enlightenment experience - impossible to pin down, utterly transformative. His main theme within the frame of such a big question - ‘What is Enlightenment?’ - is the struggle to live our lives in the present moment, especially in the face of pain. We are met with a thoughtful series of reflections, stories and images that all look to open up the gates of...

From Buddhist Centre Features on Sun, 3 Sep, 2023 - 11:50

Is it possible to engage in politics as a Buddhist? What might it look like - and not look like - if we do?

FBA Podcast: Breaking the Chains

From Free Buddhist Audio on Sat, 2 Sep, 2023 - 11:00

Devotion and prayer, ritual and freedom, engagement and tradition, Bodhidasa explores the fascinating meanings behind our common traditions in modern Buddhism - from tea and tim-tams to puja, chanting and offering. Sourcing the Pali canon, Bodhidasa discusses the Three Fetters, and the pitfalls of superficiality, habit and vagueness that can hinder our progress on the path. How do we relate to blessing and purity in the spiritual life? Through a sense of reverence and engagement with symbol,...

Community study

From Saddhamma Pradeep Retreat Center on Fri, 1 Sep, 2023 - 04:35

Its really delightful to have Dh Guhyacitta taking study of community on The Shepherd search for Mind.  A Milerapa text.

It help to have clarity of path and a connection with each other as community.

Yesterday it was especially occasion to remember our Dear friend Dh Suvajra, who was always Kind towards us. We are still benifits of his teaching on Lam Rim text as well as Bodhicaryavatar....
