What's on in Southwick

West Sussex, England

Southwick sits quietly by the coast in West Sussex, a place where the sea air keeps you calm enough to actually read a book. The Southwick Community Centre often hosts family gatherings that make neighbours feel like they belong to the same village. Even if you just want to drop off a parcel at the post office, there is usually a bit of noise and chatter in the air. When it comes to quiet hours, the Southwick Library has a schedule that keeps young minds busy without raising the volume too high. Local groups find their space here for meetings that turn into proper chats over tea. It is not about big productions but rather small moments that add up to a good week.

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
