January at Adhisthana

By Caroline I P on Wed, 31 Jan, 2024 - 16:30

It has been a lovely start to the year already. The European Chairs Assembly came for their winter meeting, and it was a great way to kick off 2024; their clear up left the place spotless and you can usually find Maitridevi and a few others playing Bananagrams after dinner (and learn some new words; atavist and quinquereme anyone?).

In community news, Caroline will be going to Akasavana this year and will be ordained by Aryajaya – we look forward to...

Looking for a couple to live in lovely spacious garden room, and create community in cosy house in Lewes

By JulieW on Wed, 9 Aug, 2023 - 21:17

I’m looking for a couple to come and live in the beautiful spacious log cabin (5m x 5m) in my secluded garden, and share kitchen, bathroom, living room, office etc in my quirky house in Lewes, East Sussex. The cabin is very comfortable, and has a wood burner. It’s 5mins walk from miles of beautiful countryside, 20mins walk into the lovely old town, and close to transport / Brighton.

I’m a Mitra with the Brighton Sangha, and have been going on Triratna...

Urgyen Sangharakshita once called Going for Refuge, “The central act of the Buddhist life”. Paramabandhu leads an international event exploring how this understanding relates to the community we all take part in, and finds its place at the very heart of our practice in Triratna.

It’s a nice flat with an open-plan living area and a garden. The rent will be somewhere around £600 per month plus bills. We’ve both really appreciated living in genuine practice communities, and...

International Sangha Day: May Our Communication Be Sangha

By Centre Team on Fri, 10 Sep, 2021 - 20:51

Sunday November 21
Sangha, spiritual community, can be described as a network of friendships based on what’s of most value. In the company of those committed to the Buddha’s teachings – past and present – we can express and deepen metta, loving-kindness, in our deeds, words and thoughts.

This year’s International Sangha Day celebration focuses on communication because communication is a crucial part of the practice and development of Sangha. At its worst, communication can cause conflict and confusion, polarisation and the...
