Dharmabyte: What is Art?

From Free Buddhist Audio on Thu, 28 Apr, 2022 - 06:00

“Art is the organisation of sensuous impressions that express the artist’s sensibility and communicate to his audience a sense of values that can transform their lives.” Using his own definition, Sangharakshita investigates the relevance of art and the artist to higher evolution.

Excerpted from the talk entitled Art and the Spiritual Life given in 1969 as part of the series The Higher Evolution.

INVITATION TO WEEKEND RETREAT

From Frome Triratna Group on Wed, 27 Apr, 2022 - 12:44

Remember meditation retreats?

That chance to go off-line, forget about To Dos, relax in beautiful countryside, meditate more deeply and open to the radiance of your mind.

I’d like to invite you to enjoy all of this once again, or perhaps for your first time. Come on a four day retreat over the Jubilee bank holiday weekend 1-5 June with me and others from Frome.

The retreat takes place at Adhisthana, an international Buddhist Centre near Malvern. It’s open to complete newcomers as well as experienced meditators....
