Dharmabyte: Reflecting on Core Triratna Features

By Rijupatha on Thu, 10 Sep, 2015 - 11:00

Today’s FBA Dharmabyte, called “Reflecting on Core Triratna Features” is an excerpt from the talk “The Six Distinctive Emphases of the FWBO”. It begins with a lovely personal note from Sangharakshita regarding the loss of his eyesight, and his reflections on the beginnings and some of the important features of Triratna (the former FWBO) that those in our community should consider.

Talk given at Padmaloka Retreat Centre, 2002.
