Sangharakshita goes to Buddhafield! A first for him, and a first for the fabulous Buddhafield Festival that takes place each year at the height of the English summer. This talk was given in a tent in Devon - and the sounds of this great Dharma celebration are everywhere around as Sangharakshita marks his entry to the ‘Dharma Parlour’ with a rolling set of thoughts and reminiscences and encouragements to practice.

Pure Presence: The Basis For Seeing Clearly

From Taraloka Retreat Centre on Thu, 13 Oct, 2022 - 00:00
In June 2023, Order Members and Mitras Training For Ordination gathered together in a big marque set up in Taraloka's beautiful grounds to listen to a series of talks and guided meditations led by Vajradevi on the theme of the Satipatthana Sutta

Reflecting on the theme of the weekend Vajradevi said: "When we’re mindful and present to what’s happening – both ‘internally’ and ‘externally’ – our responses become steady, wise, and confident. Whatever we’re doing, whether we’re meditating, working, communicating, or singing, becomes a vehicle to ‘grow’ awareness. Mindfulness becomes panoramic and we live with immediacy and creativity."

Parents Dharma Class

From Triratna Buddhist Families on Sun, 9 Oct, 2022 - 10:56

We would like to offer a warm welcome to the Online Parents Dharma Class which runs the second Sunday of the month. 

This class has run regularly for the last 3 years, going online at the start of 2020, just before the pandemic. It would be lovely to have your company. 

We plan to have more of a presence here at The Buddhist Centre Online Buddhist Families Space come Jan 2023. 

We will be finding ways to ask parents what would be most helpful to you...
