Each evening includes a mixture of meditation, teaching and discussion, with a tea break in between to socialise. Open to anyone who has completed our Intro Course.
21 JULY | VISHVAPANI
The Buddha didn't just teach a method — he offered a vision. This talk explores how imagination, symbol, and myth are not decorations added to Buddhist practice but its living core, and what it means to inhabit that vision in contemporary life.
Vishvapani is a longstanding Order member, author of Reimagining Buddhism: Understanding Sangharakshita’s Life and Teachings, and the forthcoming Buddhism and Myth, which explores the imaginative and mythic heart of the Buddhist tradition.

Six wonderful beings from our Sangha will become Mitras in this simple yet moving ceremony. Show your love and support by joining us in celebrating them.
Panos Manousis, Pardeep Nirankari, Christian Ebeyer, Dave Hall, Lori Nicholas & Sharamel Sulman.
There is no set charge for Sangha Night - we invite you to make a donation when you come, by card or cash.
The Bristol Buddhist Centre runs most of its events on a donation basis. This helps maintain a spirit of generosity and gratitude, and ensure the Dharma remains accessible to all.
