Dr. Ambedkar and His Guided Movement for Liberation

From Triratna India on Thu, 14 Apr, 2022 - 20:28

A wonderful article by Maitriveer-Nagarjuna to mark an important day remembering Babasaheb Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and the millions he helped lead out of caste oppression. The struggle continues!

At the weekly Bodhicitta practice on 3rd April, as part of the Triratna Day celebrations, Lokeshvara ritualistically handed on the role of International Order convenor to Saraha in a simple ceremony after the Bodhicitta practice led by Aryajaya.

Many sadhus to Saraha, and we all wish him, and Lokeshvara, all the best in their new ventures.

In this video you can be led through the Bodhicitta practice and watch or re-watch the handover ceremony.
