Launch of The Buddhist Vision and the Dhammapada (FBA Podcast)

By Centre Team on Tue, 9 Apr, 2024 - 10:45

Here is a recently re-discovered little lost delight - Sangharakshita and Subhuti launching each other’s books and clearly enjoying themselves. Sangharakshita’s in fine humour - and it’s great to hear him read and quote from the bible! Is that a twinkle in his voice?

Talk given at Triratna [FWBO] Day celebrations in 2001.

FBA Podcast: Bell, Book and Candle - Triratna Today and Tomorrow

By Zac on Sat, 22 Apr, 2023 - 06:00

In a London basement, fifty-one years ago a new Buddhist Movement was forged. Founded on the active principle behind an often empty ritual of ‘Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels’, this Movement has become a dynamic worldwide community of Buddhist practitioners. Just how did Sangharakshita, through the Triratna Community and Order, transform the recitation of the words ‘I go for Refuge…’ into a path of deeper meaning and purpose? Bodhidasa borrows symbols from Western Magickal traditions...

Triratna Day at Adhisthana

By Oliviahinde on Wed, 19 Apr, 2023 - 10:30

By Anne, Volunteer and Mitra from the LBC

Adhisthana was charged with excitement and inspiration as we welcomed sanghas from across the UK and parts of Europe to mark Triratna Day, the 56th anniversary of the founding of the Order in 1967. As well as those on the long weekend retreat, day and online guests joined us on the day itself, amplifying the collective experience of celebration and commemoration; the spirit of community and internationality was palpable. Local sangha friendships...

Chair's Letter – March 2023

By ratnadharini on Fri, 31 Mar, 2023 - 12:02

Dear Order members and friends,

Thanks to Maitreyabandhu for the evocative account of our network of friendships last month.

First I’ll write with an update from the March College meeting – and end with a personal request.

At that point last month, I was involved in our annual Women Preceptors’ retreat at Adhisthana, which gets better each year as the body of experience grows and the connections between us become stronger. We’d decided to make it an ‘in person’ event, while making the study...

What the World Needs Now: Triratna’s Gift

By Centre Team on Thu, 20 Jan, 2022 - 17:19

Saturday, April 9 2022

Triratna Day 2022 will focus on our contribution to the world: a vision of truth, communicated in a culture of kalyana mitrata (“beautiful friendship”), for the benefit of all. The day will be an experience of that, especially of being part of a global network of friendships for the good.

We’ll have four events—meditation, talk, a seminar and a puja—hosted from Adhisthana, Berlin, and the Americas. Translation will be available for some sessions. And our symbol will be Bhante Sangharakshita’s...

The Buddhist Centre Online Highlights from 2021

By Centre Team on Sun, 26 Dec, 2021 - 12:58

2021 has been another rollercoaster of a year: with the three of the traditional ‘four sights’ of old age, sickness and death an ever present backdrop. But 2021 has also been interspersed with moments of beauty, generosity, connectedness and hope.

Our team has been busy this year keeping the fourth sight—the Dharma—alive; fostering community—sangha—at a time of continued uncertainty.

Looking back over the year, here are some of our highlights from the year that was 2021:
