The Urygen Sangharakshita International School in India

By Sadayasihi on Mon, 12 Mar, 2018 - 12:46

There are many different Buddhist projects happening around the Triratna world.  One interesting project is a school run by Buddhists in Amravati in Maharashtra, in India.

While I am sure this was not Subhuti’s intention, the book had a painful effect on many people – especially women – even causing some to...
