Moon of the Mind: Bodhicitta

From Taraloka Retreat Centre on Fri, 7 May, 2021 - 01:00
A clear and passionate talk, looking at bodhicitta and its twin aspects of love and letting go: wisdom and compassion. Maitrisiddhi explores the role of paradox and how we need to 'hold two necessary ideas together' without polarising between them. From 'Moon of the Mind: Bodhicitta' Taraloka & Tiratanaloka online Great Gathering weekend, for women training for ordination and Order Members.

Dharmabyte: Sangha is Togetherness

From Free Buddhist Audio on Thu, 6 May, 2021 - 06:00

Munisha talks about insights gained from traveling in her early life, including realizing she didn’t know how to get along well with others. Some years later, she discovered the Triratna Buddhist Community where friendship is a basic organizing principle around which everything is based.

From the talk entitled A Life in the Sangha given on Zoom to the Stockholm Sangha to celebrate Sangha Day, in the context of the Covid 19 pandemic, November 2020.

Upcoming Ordination in Manchester

From Order Connection on Wed, 5 May, 2021 - 10:33

Dear Order Members,

I am happy to announce that Barrie Stanhope has been invited to join the Order. Barrie made contact with Manchester Triratna back in the 1990s and considerable ill health means he can’t participate in the other ordination retreats that are planned. So he will receive his private ordination from Aparajita in context of a private retreat near Southport at 11am Saturday 22nd May.

Ordinations at Adhisthana

From Order Connection on Tue, 4 May, 2021 - 21:06

Dear Order Members

But finally, five of them arrived here from various quarters of the UK and mainland Europe, along with their preceptors, in the midst of their predominantly online retreat.  High winds, heavy rain...

Ivermectin: What do you teach?

From Threads on Tue, 4 May, 2021 - 10:31

India thought it was out of the woods. And now it is in this desperate situation. In the West we are suffering not so much from Compassion-fatigue but from ‘Opinion-fatigue.’ Due to social media everybody has an opinion, as this is what we get, opinions coming from all sides to the point where we are becoming numb. And can’t think straight anymore.

I don’t know if you have been following the debate around the use of Ivermechtin as a treatment for Covid....
