Sangharakshita's Diary, February 2014

By lokabandhu on Sun, 2 Mar, 2014 - 05:56Ashvajit writes with his usual monthly round-up of Sangharakshita’s news, health and visitors, saying -

Bhante’s health has been much the same, his energy being dependent upon the sleep he...

Consciousness, Friends, Bodhicitta & Love

By viriyalila on Sat, 15 Feb, 2014 - 21:06We aim to express themes in our weekly FBA Podcasts and twice-weekly Dharmabytes. This month we’ve moved from the depths of consciousness, to reflections on Bhante as friend, from the Bodhicitta, to the Karyaniya Metta Sutta and the power of love.

Video av Adhisthana, augusti 2013

By Viryabodhi on Wed, 2 Oct, 2013 - 08:18Under augusti besökte jag Triratnas nya retreatcenter, Adhisthana, där Urgyen Sangharakshita nu bor. Tillsammans med Hridayacandra, Satyaraja och många andra vänner, deltog jag först i en retreat där Subhuti bl.a. gav 4 föredrag; efter detta stannade jag och deltog i Ordförandemötet (för europeiska och internationella Triratna-centra).
Jag satte ihop denna film och visade den på Sanghakvällen på Stockholms Buddhistcenter, 30 september 2013.

Rainy Sunday walk in Coddington

By Munisha on Sun, 4 Aug, 2013 - 12:25This morning, around 11am, we saw the first arrivals at Adhisthana of about 250 Friends, mitras and Order members from all over Britain, and further afield, to add to those Order members who stayed on from yesterday. We also saw the arrival of torrential rain.

Just before the crowds arrived, I took a walk around the village, a mile (less than 2km) away. It’s a rural area and the village, with fewer than 100 residents, includes one or two...
