The Twelve Days of FBA (2020) - Day 12: 'Fields of Creativity' by Sangharakshita

And for our last day of the Twelve Days of FBA we are delighted to have Ratnaghosha recommend a late talk by Sangharakshita entitled ’Fields of Creativity’. 

Ratnaghosha was the host on the occasion of this recording when Sangharakshita returned to London to launch the final volume of his memoirs, ‘Moving Against the Stream’. From Yogi Chen to Beowulf, Aristotle to William Blake, this is a sparkling evocation of the crucial role of creativity in any Dharma...

Sanghadhara offers a classic talk by Sangharakshita entitled ‘Evolution or Extinction: Current World Problems’, given in 1971 and still deeply relevant today, 50 years later. This talk has been curated into a series...

The Twelve Days of FBA (2020) - Day 6: 'Amoghasiddhi: Lord of the Midnight Sun' by Vaddhaka

Our community-based digital archive has evolved from an original set of reels of taped lectures by Sangharakshita, in Britain in the 1960s, to over 5000 Dharma talks hosted online and available for free everywhere. And on the sixth day, it’s Candradasa’s turn, founder of Free Buddhist Audio and the Director at Dharmachakra.
