Welcome to day 1 of the International Practice Week!

The theme is ‘Turning Arrows into Flowers’, inspired by the story of the Buddha, while under siege from all the forces Mara could muster, who simply turns the arrows hurled at him into flowers.

The International Practice Week is an opportunity for Triratna worldwide to explore this theme in an urban retreat context either in a local Sangha or online. Yashobodhi will be leading us through an exploration of the Seven-Point Mind Turning...
