FBA Podcast: Individualism, Materialism and the Challenges of the Dharma

From Free Buddhist Audio on Sat, 18 Dec, 2021 - 06:00

After exploring the relationship between the transcendental (lokuttara) and historical time, Saccanama looks at the challenges facing us at this particular point in history. Individualism and materialism present challenges both to our society and to our practice of the Dharma. Put them together and we have a form of capitalism which is so dominant that it becomes impossible to imagine any other system. Set against this, the Dharma is always challenging.

Further exploration of commonality at recent International Council meeting

From Order Connection on Fri, 17 Dec, 2021 - 10:48

At the recent meeting of the International Council we returned to the key theme of ‘commonality’. This time we adopted a study-based approach and commissioned a series of three videos to inform our reflection. 

We would like to make these materials available to all Order members for discussion in their chapters or other Order contexts in the hope that they may stimulate reflection on this key topic. 

Neither the International Council as a whole nor the International Council Steering Group necessarily endorse all the views put forward.

The first...

Dharmabyte: Loosening Boundaries

From Free Buddhist Audio on Thu, 16 Dec, 2021 - 06:00

What is another person? Vijayamala helps us to see how our assumptions impact our ability to see others clearly. Creating spaces for things to unfold in our relating to others is a practice of mindfulness.

From the talk entitled Love Without Illusions, part of the series Four Dimensions of Awareness, given at Cambridge Buddhist Centre, 2016.
