The Triratna Buddhist Community - formerly known as the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order (FWBO) - was founded in 1967 by Sangharakshita. It is now an international movement with activities in more than 20 countries, including India. The Triratna Buddhist Community is a non-sectarian Buddhist movement which seeks promote the practice of Buddhism in a form appropriate to the modern world.
Triratna means "Three Jewels", specifically the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, which are the central foci of a Buddhist's life and practice. They've long been represented in our logo and we're delighted that our name will now reflect them as well.

I remember him. What a guy. Awesome sense of humour, really committed, into his meditation. Always kind and thoughtful. I used to have lunch with him occasionally - his company was a real pleasure. What a shock
With Anomvira what you saw was what you got. No hidden agendas. He was famous for singing the warehouse blues at Windhorse Trading's warehouse. ex Vimaladhara
