What's on in Queens Park

East Sussex, England

Queens Park sits quietly in East Sussex with a park that gives its name to the whole place and plenty of room for a Sunday stroll. There are no big venues listed right now but you can usually find something local popping up at a community hall or church hall nearby. It's the kind of spot where neighbours wave as they walk their dogs rather than shout at passing cars. The town has a relaxed pace that suits families and retirees alike, making it easy to plan a quiet evening or catch a chance meeting with an old friend. Near Here keeps track of what's on so you don't have to waste time scrolling through empty listings or wondering if the local cinema is actually showing films this week.

Triratna Day Festival
Community

Triratna Day Festival

In April 1967 Urgyen Sangharakshita founded what has become the Triratna Buddhist Community. Today we are a contemporary international Buddhist movement, firmly established in traditional yet hugely relevant Buddhist Teaching. Now more than ever practising the Buddha’s teachings on Compassion and Wisdom seem compelling, even urgent. Join us as we celebrate the founding of our Buddhist movement. Our day will focus on Practice for Peace in our World. We will include periods of meditation, ritual and reflection. There will also be space to practise gratitude that we have inherited an effective context in which we can make a difference. Join Maitridarshin, Akasati, Sthanashrada, Shuddhadhara and the Team for all or part of the day. The Day’s Programme: 10.30am Doors open 11am  to 1.00pm – a morning of meditation, reflection and discussion, including a talk from Akasati: WORLD GONE MAD: What can Buddhists offer? How relevant is Buddhist practice, in the midst of global chaos? Can cultivating  awareness and ethics have a ripple effect on the world? Taking in Buddhist teachings and contemporary thinkers, Akasati explores what Triratna Buddhists have to offer. 1pm A festival lunch – please bring vegetarian / vegan food to share together (labelled please). 2.15pm to 4pm – an afternoon of ritual, devotion and puja All welcome, no need to book, by donation
