Book Launch – Approaching Enlightenment

Book Launch – Approaching Enlightenment

Sunday 10 August 10am – 1pm

Join Bodhidasa in launching his recent publication on ritual, devotion and puja, titled ‘Approaching Enlightenment‘. Visiting from Sydney, he will be giving a talk about the book, and leading a retreat later in August.

Praise for the book: “Bodhidasa has given us a beautiful guide to understanding ritual, bringing in its magical and mysterious nature, as well as giving down-to-earth practical suggestions. He takes us in a refreshing and engaging way through Triratna’s Sevenfold Puja. I recommend this book to anyone practising the Dharma, the experienced and convinced, as well as the more skeptical. Once I started, I couldn’t put to down.” —Khemasiri, co-founder of the Triratna Buddhist Centre in Amsterdam
