Character, Personality & Individuality (Who is Urgyen Sangharakshita? - Part 2)

Mar 11, 2019, 04:24 PM

Subhuti, one of the most senior and respected members of the Triratna Buddhist Order,  explores a distinction made by Sangharakshita that helps to understand some of the paradoxes that Sangharakshita has left us with, as well as helping us to understand how we too can be so uneven in our Dharma lives.

In this set of three rambles, Subhuti unpacks his 15 minute funeral oration for Sangharakshita (founder of the Triratna Buddhist Order) on 10th November 2018 at Adhisthana. He demonstrates how someone can be considered a very great teacher, exemplar, and even guru, yet also be a human being with his own personality and even failings.
