Sangha night is for mitras, Order Members or anyone who’s done an intro course with us. Our weekly chance to come together, hear and discuss the Dharma and meditate and make connections with one another. Do join us!

We’ll be weaving these faculties together with guidance and inspiration through talks workshops, meditations, discussion, ritual and more. We hope as the classes progress, we can find from those attending, what it is they particularly need, to strengthen and sustain their own sustainable practice. We hope this will help us draw out the potential of these powerful tools in response to the specific needs of the Sangha as the year unfolds.
Sangharakshita wrote that with these five faculties we can grasp “all the moral and spiritual conditions necessary to the attainment of Enlightenment.” They are powerful tools which can be approached from many different angles. Back in 2008
He correlated them with the mandala of the five Buddhas and Buddhist Centre activities. Find out more about these ideas here
