From Community Highlights on Fri, 24 May, 2013 - 16:31As we mentioned yesterday, while we wait for some voices from the Buddhafield Green Earth Awakening Camp to filter through from the hills we’ll keep posting some talks that give a good sense of the distinct approach Buddhafield takes to practice. Here’s another of Lokabandhu’s excellent mini-eBooks featuring Paramananda on retreat at Buddhafield.

Buddhafield eBooks - Akasati: Ecology, Buddhism and Buddhafield, An Introduction

From Community Highlights on Thu, 23 May, 2013 - 19:27Well, as expected, the internet gods were (quite properly!) no match for the secret realm where Buddhafield’s Green Earth Awakening Camp is gathering for the weekend Dharma festivities. N.B. It’s not too late to join them!
