From Community Highlights on Sat, 9 Nov, 2013 - 11:52Hi all, a quick tech note for those using the Firefox/Mozilla web browser.

Here’s a PDF version of the program for the retreat to complement the online version.
A note on using Issuu (the rather nice way we embed documents on The Buddhist Centre Online): you can usually download by clicking the Issuu document and, when it opens full-screen, choosing the ‘share’ icon (top right)…
From Loving Kindness - Blazing Like The Sun on Thu, 7 Nov, 2013 - 22:16Hello there, just wanted to introduce the “team” for the urban retreat, but before that here is a couple of responses to questions we’ve had about the event…
1) Is there any charge for the online urban retreat? It is all free. We will have an appeal for some money on Wednesday and Friday to help pay for future online urban retreats. You are really welcome to contribute if you wish, but we are basically offering this for free… ...
