Elders - a long weekend for all ordained by Sangharakshita

A weekend for all those ordained by Sangharakshita; a weekend of peer friendship and conversation, shared practice, reminiscence, and celebration.

This is the third time such an event has been held at Adhisthana, this time in the 50th year of the Order. It is a meeting point for the first generation of Order Members, a chance to sit in a room with those who share a lived experience of the early years of this movement, celebrating and rejoicing, recognising and remembering the years past, letting things go, sharing experience and practice, and continuing to contribute to the discourse and myth of the Order.

Much of what now is can be traced back to the efforts of your generation. These events integrate that fundamental element of history, lineage and long-standing friendship into the mandala that Adhisthana is becoming; and they are hosted here in recognition of you and the conditions you have created that have supported all of us who have followed over the years.


Our waged/unwaged rate is £111/78, but for this event we are offering unlimited dana places so that money need not be an obstacle to attending - it is more important that you have the opportunity to gather - if you would like to book a dana place, please email admin@adhisthana.org and you will have the opportunity to give while you are here.
