Dedication

By Development Team on Thu, 22 Aug, 2019 - 12:01

The International Gathering 2019 is about to start. 
A team of people have been working joyfully to prepare and set everything up. Each day’s work was started with this dedication-ceremony, created by Polly from verses about Padmasambhava, which expresses the spirit of creating the event and welcoming people to it.

There is no teacher like the Buddha
There is no protector like the Dharma
There is no field like the Sangha

May we follow the Three Jewels with a devotion as...

FBA Podcast: Sangharakshita as Teacher

By Sadayasihi on Sat, 13 Jul, 2019 - 14:00

Subhuti shares his reflections on Urgyen Sangharakshita in the days following his death and funeral ceremony. He explores the double response to Sangharakshita as an effective Dharma teacher and former of Sangha alongside the various difficulties and paradoxes in his life.

The two last papers Sangharakshita wrote, completed just over two weeks before he died, examine the three main paths of Buddhism, among other things, and thereby offer three different ways of understanding his own role as...

Triratna InHouse rediscovers long-lost seminar!

By lokabandhu on Tue, 2 Jul, 2019 - 14:22

Some very exciting news here at Triratna InHouse Publications has been the rediscovery and republication of a long-lost but very important seminar by Sangharakshita, ‘Dhyana for Beginners’.  This was the principal inspiration for Vajraloka’s meditation teaching for many years.  You’ll find it in a new Volume VII of the Mahayana Texts, Sutras and Sadhanas series within the 17 volumes of Sangharakshita’s Collected Seminars - along with two other unpublished seminars, the Ratnagunasamcayagatha and some questions and answers on...

Direct Action Meditations and the Dharma

By Maitrisiddhi on Thu, 9 May, 2019 - 12:49

I’m passionate about the Dharma, including the wisdom perspective. I’m passionate about spreading the Dharma. As well as spending the last ten years of my life in service to Taraloka, I’ve also started up West Wales Buddhist Group, in Aberystwyth, where we’re growing a lively sangha. I’m passionate about Maitreya, my yidam - Bodhisattva of Metta and Buddha of the Future - who meditates at the city gates, in the middle of the world, not in a quiet cave somewhere....
