Tip No. 2: Invisible Groups and Order-only Groups...

From Triratna Resources on Wed, 20 Jun, 2012 - 20:39

We’ve had a few enquiries about this, so I thought I’d write a tip about how to get the most out of Groups on your Project and still keep some things completely private.

As you’ll recall from our last tip, unlike Projects (which are always visible and completely public so anyone can ‘follow’ anytime), we’ve set up Groups so they are always visible but private by default. That means people need to click ’+ join’...

Encountering Reality - The 4 Sights

From Sheffield Buddhist Centre on Thu, 8 Jan, 2026 - 00:00
Our brand new series begins where Buddhism began, where every Dharma journey begins - with one human being encountering reality in some form, and deciding to change the whole course of their life as a consequence. Join us as Bodhinaga tells the story of ‘The Buddha’s 4 Sights’ and invites you to contemplate the people and events that have inspired you to change. What was The Buddha really like? We are told that the Buddha broke through into a radically different state of being, transcending ordinary human consciousness. What might it have been like to encounter that? There was something magnetic, awesome, mysterious, and powerful about The Buddha. Some people even ‘WOKE UP!’ just by being in his presence. During this series we will go on a journey, where we will glimpse The Buddha by imagining our way into some of the brilliant stories handed down to us - stories of an Enlightened Being interacting with the people he met. We’ll be asking ourselves, what we can learn about The Buddha from these stories…and we’ll attempt to bring some of those qualities into the situations and people that we encounter in our daily life.
