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!

People's hunger for the Dharma is met openly and freely with Free Buddhist Audio. Our little centre library just cannot compete with all that is available here!

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

An incredibly useful resource with huge potential for educating the sangha and bringing practitioners together. I particularly like its one-stop-shop aspect: whatever it is, it's bound to be on FBA!

I love it when a deeply moving excerpt from a Dharma talk is randomly followed on my MP3 player by a piece of music, and then more Dharma comes randomly through. That pretty much rocks my world.
Padmavajri, East Sussex
How wonderful to be able to listen to such a wealth of deeply inspiring Dharma talks by Bhante and so many other experienced practitioners of the Dharma. I feel blessed.
Candradasa, FBA Team
Connecting with my own Buddhist friends and colleagues helps keep me inspired in my own life and practice, so it's very cool that I get to work on projects that help make this possible for others too.

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

The Three Lakshanas

a series of talks by Various

The Three Lakshanas:

"All conditioned things are impermanent...

All things whatsoever are devoid of unchanging selfhood...

All conditioned things are painful.

When one sees this with Insight,

One becomes weary of suffering:

This is the way to purity."

This is an excellent three-part series on the three lakshanas - or 'marks' of conditioned existence - as observed by the Buddha. Together, Jnanaketu, Abhaya and Saddhaloka, take a good look around the nature of reality as we typically experience it. The crucial insights explored point the way to a more meaningful engagement with our lives, and, indeed, offer material for a lifetime's worth of reflection.
