Dimensions of Refuge: Side B Revealed

From Dharma Tape History Detectives on Sat, 15 Jun, 2013 - 16:19
We’re making some progress on Dhammadinna’s 1993 talk Dimensions of Refuge. I’ve got about 15 minutes of side A cleaned up to deliver to Danamaya today for transcription. I’ve already begun transcribing the rest of side A, with the understanding that Danamaya or someone else will check my transcription alongside the audio. We think it will make sense to provide the full transcript when we’re done, but only the audio parts that are really listenable.

Buddhafield Photography

From Buddhafield on Thu, 13 Jun, 2013 - 22:33I’ve recently uploaded a backlog of photos to the Buddhafield Flickr account.

I’d then recently taken on development of the Buddhafield website, www.buddhafield.com, which had been stuck in the...
