To get into the spirit of BAM all events are on a donation or dana basis, (though there is a non-refundable €50 booking deposit for the Cavan retreat).

J’imagine que vous avez tous entendu parler du séisme au Népal, et de la situation difficile de centaine de milliers, voire de millions de gens là-bas. Peut-être voulez-vous faire quelque chose, mais vous ne savez pas trop quoi ni comment - aider financièrement, par exemple, mais qui et comment ?

By lokabandhu on Sat, 28 Jul, 2012 - 05:33Silajala from Triratna’s Bristol Buddhist Centre writes with news of their latest initiative - the ‘Vajra Volunteers’ scheme, which sounds like a great initiative that could be copied all over Triratna!
