Mitra Ceremony
Wednesday 13 November 7pm – 9:15pm
Becoming a mitra (a Sanskrit word meaning "friend") is a significant step someone's spiritual life. It is a declaration that they consider themselves to be a Buddhist within the context of the Triratna Buddhist Community. This evening four of our community - Chris, Lee, Liz and Wendy - will take part in a ceremony to mark their passage into a deepening of their spiritual lives.
Mitra ceremonies are very joyful and moving occasions filled with a sense of warmth and loving-kindness. The evening will begin with tea and cake at 6.30pm, with the actual programme beginning at 7.00 pm.
