Turning Obstacles Into the Path: The Great Gathering 30 May - 2 Jun

By Maitrisiddhi on Fri, 12 Jan, 2024 - 10:02

With urgency, humour and passion, Shantideva’s Bodhicaryavatara, ‘Guide to the Bodhisattva Path’ gives us a path of vision and a path of transformation. How can we engage all of ourselves - messy, passionate, loving-hating beings that we are - in the quest for awakening for the sake of all that lives?

Led by Subhadramati, Maitridevi, Karunadhi, Maitrisiddhi and Mahamani

All proceeds from this event will go to support Tiratanaloka Unlimited.

Come! You...

This brings our new total to over one million pounds, which means we’re...
