A personal reflection on the death of Sangharakshita

A personal reflection on the death of Sangharakshita

From Sangharakshita Memorial Space on Wed, 14 Nov, 2018 - 09:44

So this first era of the Triratna movement has come to its end with the death of our founder and teacher, our contemporary ‘shower of the way’, Urgyen Sangharakshita. What difference will this make to the movement? Actually, the answer to that should be ‘none at all’. Sangharakshita was fully aware that his lifetime was brief, the continuation of the movement he founded depended on it functioning without him and took the necessary steps to ensure that it would.

Grateful

What I found most fascinating with Bhante Urgyen Sangharakshita are his unique ways to draw one to Dharma thru his example and his recounting Dharma. Bhante displays a thirst for more, better, purer Dharma, never content with his achievements until he reaches the path of no more learning.

His expounding Dharma is marvelously musical, sharp, insightful, of an inexpressible flavor. The complete set of Dharma teachings are encompassed in his vision.

GBC Protection Policies and Ethical Guidelines

From Glasgow Buddhist Centre on Tue, 13 Nov, 2018 - 08:12

Our Adult Protection Policy & Child Protection Policy

(Please note that in Scotland the term ‘protection’ is used instead of ‘safeguarding’. We occasionally use the word safeguarding if its usage helps the meaning be a little clearer.)

Our Ethical Guidelines

Like our Protection policies, it expresses our commitment to the 5 Ethical Precepts, and outlines how they are practiced.

Thanks to everyone - the many thousands - who tuned into our live stream on the day of Urgyen Sangharakshita’s funeral and burial. And to those who have been watching and re-watching since. It’s been moving to read the continuing flood of messages and appreciation from around the world. 

On the day we were faced with a number of unexpected (and some expected!) technical difficulties, and the live stream was effectively broken up across different channels, posts and platforms. Here then...

Sangharakshita my first and last encounter

Mon, 12 Nov, 2018 - 14:55[edit]

I am incredibly happy that I got the chance to meet with Sangharakshita in person at Adhistana in April 2018. He was so kind and present and knowledgeable, so the conversation was easy. When he understood I was a gemmologist, he took out some stones and made me choose one. I still have it in my purse….

I was in India when the news of his death reached me and I felt he was with me on the yoga mat every morning the following days.

At our meeting I could also feel his mild sense of humour when I was teaching him a little about the stones we were looking at;
