Chairs' Letter – December 2020

From College of Public Preceptors on Tue, 29 Dec, 2020 - 13:25

Dear Order Members and friends,

Ratnadharini has been writing these monthly letters for about a year now, and recently asked if those of us serving as College deputies would like to write one from time to time. I’m the first to take up this opportunity.

At the start of the pandemic, Ratnadharini started meeting weekly with her College deputies as a way of keeping in touch together with what was happening in the world and in the...

Introducing the Eight Guidelines OM

From College of Public Preceptors on Mon, 28 Dec, 2020 - 14:08

Dear Order members,

We are pleased to introduce to you a revised and expanded version of the Six Guidelines – now become the Eight Guidelines. The Eight Guidelines were adopted by the College of Public Preceptors at our recent international meeting. While the Six Guidelines have been very useful over the years, they do not address all the principal areas of ordination training.

The new Eight Guidelines offer a more comprehensive framework through which Order members can reflect on a mitra’s readiness for ordination....

2020: A Review of the Year

From Community Highlights on Tue, 22 Dec, 2020 - 16:15

Windhorse Publications is one of only a handful of Buddhist publishers in the West, and, to our knowledge, we’re the only Buddhist publisher based in the UK. For the past forty-five years, the books we’ve published (by Sangharakshita and other authors) have been instrumental in the continued spread of the Dharma to the West and have formed a rich treasure-trove of resources for the Triratna Buddhist Community. Our vision is for Windhorse Publications to continue to spread life-changing Dharma...

Help us build the “Enlightened Forest”

We are living difficult times, all of us, without a doubt. From the long perspective this is nothing new. “Samsara”, the world we live in is characterized by a mixture of joy and suffering. What can we offer to this world?

What we can do is collaborate, help each other, manifest what we can call “Team Human”, that is, a collaboration between several people contributes much more than a single person alone can do. Suryavana...
