Object 1: A\u00a0Dutch tulip vase<\/h2>\n

A particular vase designed for cut flowers recalls the\u00a0FWBO growing in\u00a0Continental Europe and also the importance of art and culture in Sangharakshita’s translation of the Dharma.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Object 2: A sandalwood garland<\/h2>\n
A\u00a0garland made from sandalwood shavings brings back memories\u00a0of Sangharakshita’s last tour of India…<\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Object 3: A greenstone from New Zealand<\/h2>\n
A\u00a0form of jade stone leads Sangharakshita into talking about going to Australia and New Zealand, and his connection with semi-precious stones. Saddhanandi reads his poem, ‘Greenstone’.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
