It was great - and fitting! - to have Ananda's help in putting up the Fifty Years, Fifty Voices exhibition in the Adhisthana library just after the Blake retreat last month. Here he is hanging a photo we've used of the first ordinations in 1968 - tho' unfortunately he's not actually in that image himself. Huge thanks to Dhammarati for fitting in the design work on this - and doing such a fab job, as ever - amidst his myriad other tasks
The exhibition is designed as a kind-of 'trailer' for the online presentation of the project and features the first eight voices. For those attending the Combined Area Order Weekend in August 2018, there will be the opportunity to find out more about the project and where it might go in future, and how to be involved, as I'm hoping to hang out in the library space a fair bit. The first 50 Voices are 'in the can' and Candradasa and I are finishing off the editing work to get them all up online here.
Meanwhile Rijupatha is working away at the new Fifty Years, Fifty Voices mini-website which will offer a whole different way to explore this 'hologram' of living Dharma practice...
