Vishvapani, member of the Triratna Buddhist Order and a regular on BBC Radio 4’s ‘Thought for the Day’, writes to say - “I've had a little spate of broadcasting recently. On Friday I did another Thought for the Day, which is available here:  www.bbc.co.uk/religion/programmes/thought/week.shtml.  

"I'll be doing another one on Friday 11 March at 7.45-7.50 am on BBC Radio 4.

"And on Sunday 6 March I was a panellist on discussion programme on BBC1 called The Big Questions, which is available here: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00zfmhx/The_Big_Questions_Series_4_Episode_9/”

Meanwhile his  new book, ‘Gautama Buddha: The Life and Teachings of the Awakened One’ has been appearing on bookshop shelves around the Triratna Buddhist Community.  It’s been attracting some great reviews, for instance this by Dorothy Rowe, Psychologist and author of Beyond Fear, who says -  ‘Master of clarity and simplicity, Vishvapani presents, through the life of Buddha, an understanding of Buddhism of immense relevance to the way we live now’.
