Year 2 mitra study, the Way of Mindfulness

From Mitra Study Leaders on Tue, 16 Dec, 2025 - 16:02

The current layout with so many pages of sample diaries, and the all important appendices right at the back of the whole module, is very difficult to navigate, especially in the on-line version but also in the paperback.     My group suggests putting the appendices for each unit with the unit main page, and the diary pages right at the back.

My group members have also not found the diary format particularly useful, and have devised their own  individual notes, in discussion...

De Tre Farkosterna - Del 2

From Stockholms buddhistcenter on Tue, 16 Dec, 2025 - 00:00
Genom sin över 2 500 år långa historia har buddhismen utvecklats i tre stora faser: Theravada, mahayana och vajrayana. Under två kvällar kommer vi utifrån dessa tre stora grenar fördjupa oss i hur buddhismens idéer, texter, praktiker och kulturella uttryck har förändrats genom tiderna. Samt hur dessa möts och utövas inom Buddhistiska gemenskapen Triratna.

Death of Amoghabandhu

From Order Messenger on Sat, 13 Dec, 2025 - 15:40

Dear Friends,

I have recently received news that Amoghabandhu has recently died. I am Amoghabandhu’s private preceptor and I have very fond memories of him. He first came along to the Croydon centre in the 1980s and we made a good connection then. In 1998 I ordained him on the three-month Guhyaloka course, giving him his name and initiating him into the Amitabha Sadhana.

Amoghabandhu’s life took him in a different direction and we had not had any contact for many years. I would...

What Is a True Individual (FBA Podcast)

From Free Buddhist Audio on Sat, 13 Dec, 2025 - 11:00

Mahasraddha speaks about becoming a true individual to the Oslo Sangha. He starts with the importance of being in touch with the bodhisattva ideal and the dangers of losing this connection. He then explores the relationship between the true individual, the positive group and the unhealthy group.
