Today’s FBA Dharmabyte entitled “Altruistic Activity as Insight Practice” draws from an evening of discussion with Sangharakshita in which he was asked to discuss whether one could see altruistic activity as a support for insight in light of the illness of the world.
In today’s FBA Dharmabyte, we complete our series on Sangharakshita, his life and his friendships with “Lalitaratna Rejoices in Bhante”. This talk is another in a set recorded during a celebration of Sangharakshita’s birthday in 2010, featuring the lively and humorous reminiscences of Lalitaratna.
In today’s FBA Dharmabyte, we listen while “Akasasuri Rejoices in Bhante,” expressing her appreciation for the role that Sangharakshita has played in the spiritual life of herself and others. This talk was recorded during a celebration of Sangharakshita’s birthday in 2010.
Poetry of Sangharakshita set to music and sung by Joe Richardson. Secret Wings and Pilgrim have tunes by Dh Sumana whose playing inspired me to start this, Winter in the Hills has a traditional Irish tune.
In today’s FBA Dharmabyte, “Paramachitta Rejoices in Bhante”, Paramachitta reflects on the positive qualities of her honored teacher, Sangharakshita, on the occasion of his birthday in 2010.
Dharmashalin returns in today’s FBA Dharmabyte with part two of his overview of the spiritual life of Sangharakshita. In “Sangharakshita and Triratna,” we continue the story principally through the development of Triratna from a dream to an international Buddhist community.
In today’s FBA Dharmabyte, “Sangharakshita: The Early Years,” Dharmashalin gives us an overview of Sangharakshita’s early life and spiritual path before founding the Triratna Buddhist Community. A great primer for those wanting to know a bit more back-story about our teacher.
We are delighted to dedicate today’s FBA Dharmabyte to poetry. Not just any poetry, but “A New Poem From Sangharakshita,” read by Parami at the European Women’s Convention held at Adhisthana, August 30 2014.
