Poetry and verse were a lifelong love of Sangharakshita. His deep reverence for the Buddha was often expressed in his poetry. This programme explores Bhante’s thoughts on the importance of devotion whether expressed through writing, adorning shrines, puja or in other ways.
Paramartha considers the books of verse that Sangharakshita kept with him throughout his life including a text that proved an important source of inspiration, encouragement and guidance not only in his early years in India but throughout his life.
