Adhisthana night & day tests

By Suryaprabha on Thu, 7 Nov, 2013 - 00:10

Triple dedication ceremonies for Adhisthana

By lokabandhu on Tue, 6 Aug, 2013 - 13:47Last weekend saw the formal dedication of Triratna’s newest retreat centre - Adhisthana. In fact the community there had arranged a triple ceremony, welcoming local people and others on Friday, the Order on Saturday, and the wider Triratna Buddhist Community sangha on Sunday.

Adhisthana is a very important addition to Triratna’s worldwide ‘mandala’ of Buddhist centres, being Sangharakshita’s new home (and intended as his final resting place). It will house his library of books and artefacts,...

A great many people have spent months working incredibly hard to restore and convert this beautiful 18th century building, its land and newer buildings for Triratna use. As you can imagine, the team there are working overtime in these last few days.

Introducing the Sangharakshita Land Project’s new home - part V

By lokabandhu on Fri, 1 Mar, 2013 - 04:16Today, in the last of our series of five short videos introducing the new home for the Sangharakshita Land Project, we meet the community itself: men and women, members of the Triratna Buddhist Community and Order, living and working together in a multitude of different ways but all, ultimately, aiming to cooperate to create conditions for the arising of the Bodhicitta. It’s been winter, and not an easy time to be moving in to an old and unheated...
