Staying at Home, Dancing with the Universe

May 2nd, 2008

Free Buddhist AudioAnother excellent talk, from the Buddhafield project. Amaragita takes a look at Buddhist practice in the light of parenting, and has a lot of good things to say about the everyday business of staying with our experience, embracing the hard bits and releasing the joy.

As an added bonus, listen for some lovely singing throughout!

Talk given at the Buddhafield Festival in 2006.

New Community site launched…

May 2nd, 2008

Free Buddhist AudioWe’re absolutely delighted – and somewhat relieved – today to be able to announce the full launch of our new community site!

This represents a very big shift for our service: now any Fwbo centre or institution – anywhere in the world – can upload its own talks, and have its own pages on the site. We’ve already got quite a few signed up, and the first talks are appearing – in English, French and German! Come and take a look

What’s very exciting for us is that the amount of material on the website will increase greatly over the next months, and is likely to be much more up-to-date and representative of what’s going on in our international community. It will also allow us at the archives to concentrate on getting a lot more of the older talks and special recordings online.

Watch this space for more news of new features as we roll them out in the coming months. And if your centre or Fwbo project would like to get involved, we’d be delighted if you get in touch!

One other piece of news: in April, Free Buddhist Audio had its first 20,000 visitor month! We’ve come a long way since the days of selling scratchy old cassette tapes to about 200 people a year… Thank you to everyone for their tremendous support!
