Synopsis Cyberloka by : Prajnaketu

Prajnaketu takes us into the world of the cyberloka – the online realm in which so much of our lives now take place. In this short, punchy and often funny book, Prajnaketu offers deep Buddhist insights that help us manage and flourish in the digital age. Going beyond questions of digital diet, he shows how our perception is shaped by being online, and how we can work with awareness and mindfulness as we negotiate hyperavailability, superstimulation and what and how to broadcast on social media. He also starts a long overdue conversation between Buddhist ethics and the world of pornography.

Synopsis What Is the Sangha? by : Sangharakshita

It can be a surprise to find that Buddhism gives great importance to the Sangha, the spiritual community. Some may feel that their guru or teacher is all that they need. To others, the idea of sharing their inner and outer lives with others can seem a challenge or even a threat. But the spiritual community is not about unthinking conformity or belonging to a comfortable group. Rather, it is the free association of developing individuals choosing to help each other along the path.

Synopsis Going for Refuge by : Sangharakshita (Bhikshu)

Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels is what makes one a Buddhist - the ever-deepening act by which one turns from the mundane towards the transcendental, and the definitive act of the Buddhist's life, from which all else follows. The practices, precepts and vows that direct a Buddhist's life-style are all subsidiary to that crucial commitment to the ideals embodied by the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.
