Donations flood in for Nepal

By Munisha on Sat, 2 May, 2015 - 17:05

It’s not too late to give. Make a Buddha Day donation!

Why Facebook Isn't Enough

By Candradasa on Mon, 9 Jul, 2012 - 18:23Facebook - you just can’t get away from it! Did you know that over 900 million people now actively use it? That means by ‘population’, Facebook is (sort of!) the world’s third largest country! And it’s a safe bet that soon enough more people will spend time on the mother of all social networks than live in any one nation… That’s quite a thought, and quite a new sort of connected global reality for...
