Triratna@50 - For the Welfare of the World

From London Buddhist Centre on Mon, 10 Apr, 2017 - 01:00
The fire of peace has been ignited in the world by the Buddha. It burns brightly today in the Triratna Order and movement, and inspired by Sangharakshita’s vision will burn well into the future – but how do we fan the flames so that the heat of practice transforms the world?

Daily quote from 'The Survey': the attainment of Enlightenment

From Tiratanaloka on Sun, 9 Apr, 2017 - 21:49

Subhuti - For the Welfare of the World (Audio)

From Community Highlights on Sat, 8 Apr, 2017 - 23:01

A great talk by Subhuti, live streamed around the world from London at the time, to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Triratna Buddhist Community. 

The fire of peace has been ignited in the world by the Buddha. It burns brightly today in the Triratna Order and movement, and inspired by Sangharakshita’s vision will burn well into the future – but how do we fan the flames so that the heat of practice transforms the world?
