Buddhasiha, Ipswich, UK

Hearing the Dharma, rather than reading the Dharma, very much inspires me. If I feel things are flagging, a talk from Free Buddhist Audio can lift me - it can get my sense of inspiration and sraddha really moving!
Viriyalila, Portsmouth, USA

FBA lets me hear the whole of our community's 'voice', and sit in a room with Sangharakshita as he elucidates the Dharma as it was originally passed on to us by the Buddha, ie. as an oral tradition.
Sanghajivini, Newcastle, UK

FBA is a great resource for women Triratna Buddhists to be able to share their Dharma teaching and practices with others around the world.
Vajradarshini, Valderrobres, Spain

I live in Spain so have no Buddhist Centres or Libraries close at hand and FBA is like having an excellent Dharmic library right here. Listening to the Dharma is a whole practice in itself!
Padmavajri, East Sussex

My meditation practice is benefiting from access to the led meditations and reflections for those times when I need a helping hand.
Ratnachuda, South London, UK

What I value about Free Buddhist Audio is the range of talks and texts from the past, right up to the present day.
Candradasa, FBA Team

I love the possibilities the internet opens up for communicating our values. It's been an amazing journey that's seen FBA grow from a small tape company into a major online space for Buddhist audio!
Jinamitra, Welwyn, UK

These recordings have been a key part of my life, especially as I don't live near a Buddhist Centre. With its excellent organisation and fast delivery, FBA is a unique resource. A pleasure to donate.
