  • Last Glimpses of Sangharakshita
    In the weeks following Urgyen Sangharakshita’s death in 2018, Mahamati, one of his secretaries and companions, spoke informally at a number of Order gatherings about the experience of working closely with him during the last fifteen or so years of his life. Here, Mahamati reflects on aspects of their time together, and on aspects of Sangharakshita’s personality and character which were not always visible publicly. We are afforded a series of glimpses into the concerns of his final years and those of his last days. A moving, very personal account of connection, duty, love and faith from a disciple about his teacher, which also opens out into something bigger and potentially more collective, founded on gratitude and a sense of fundamental relationship to the Dharma itself. Talk given at Vimaladhatu, Germany for the Triratna Buddhist Order, December 2018. *** This month's FBA Podcasts and Dharmabytes celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of Sangharakshita’s birth, founder of the Triratna Buddhist Community and Order.

  • Dukkha - Individual and Collective
    Saccanama explores the First Noble Truth of dukkha or unsatisfactoriness. Through looking at incidents from the life of the Buddha, he explores not just the individual aspect of dukkha but also the collective or social aspects of dukkha which are often overlooked or downplayed in Buddhist tradition. He also explores the traditional descriptions of dukkha before going on to examine what Joanna Macy calls apathy or our disconnection from the world. Through emphasising the collective and social aspects of dukkha, we have a motive for practice that doesn’t buy into the danger of individualism. This talk was given at Nottingham Buddhist Centre as part of the series Challenging Dharma for Challenging Times, 2020. *** Help us keep FBA Podcasts free for everyone!

  • A System of Training
    Dhammarati explores Triratna’s system of practice - its background in practice, its relationship to tradition, and its implications for the very nature of spiritual life. An encouraging, grounded, flexible take on the rigorous, meaningful, and rewarding challenges of a lifetime of working with the mind and the heart. Talk given at the national Triratna Buddhist Order weekend, February 2008. *** Help us keep FBA Podcasts free for everyone!
