You've seen Tiratanaloka in Wales is for sale, you're thinking of all the things our Movement could repurpose it for, well... Now is the time to act! We’re in negotiations to sell, but if possible we'd like to keep it in the Movement.
We know people are thinking about it – now is the last opportunity for you to express your interest. If anyone in Triratna wants to buy it, individually or with a group of friends – you’ve got until the end of May. We’ve dropped the price to £900,000.
He made it from Padmaloka to Tiratanaloka!
Here’s Viryananda arriving yesterday at Tiratanaloka Ware and stopping for some well earned lunch. Sponsor his bike ride with link in our stories and bio ✨✨
Viryananda is cycling from Padmaloka to Tiratanaloka Ware, and then onto Adhisthana, to raise money for Tiratanaloka Unlimited.
Viryananda already did a massive fundraiser for us in our first phase of fundraising, so it’s awesome he’s back out on his bike for us again!
Comment below if you want the link to his Just Giving page, or find it in our stories and bio!
