Buddhafield Festival 2013
Wednesday
17 — Sunday 21 July 2013
This
year Buddhafield will be basing its programme around the theme of A
Fire in the Heart. Get involved: bring something red to wear during our
public rituals! Find out more
about why the Buddhist practice of loving kindness can help us discover
the radiant, joyful heart within each of us.
The
Buddhafield Festival is held on a beautiful site in the Blackdown Hills
Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB),
about 7 miles South of Taunton, at Culmhead.
We
offer a
full programme of activities, including the teaching, discussion and
study of Buddhism
and meditation in the Dharma Parlour and Meditation Space.
If it’s relaxation you’re looking for, take your ease in one a number
of vegan and
vegetarian cafés, whilst waiting for one of our
extensive range of workshops
to start. There’s a full performance
programme of music and cabaret. We have a set of specialist Areas and Spaces
including Permaculture, Social Change, Women’s Space and a terrific
Kids Area. Amongst the delights of healing
and bodywork on offer, you could learn or practise Yoga, Tai
Chi, Chi Gung, book a massage or investigate a one of the dozens of
other treatments.
The
testimonials
page has a selection of recent feedback and reviews. There’s also a
list of photographs and videos.
Get into the Spirit ... but Leave
the Spirits at Home
Buddhism
is
about getting out of our head. Into the body. Into the abundance of the
present moment. Away from stale thought loops that regret the past or
worry about the future; away from a dulled, dumbed down experience;
away from avoiding parts of ourselves, into the full vividness and
beauty of now.
In
the
Buddhist ethical trainings, this “mindfulness clear and radient is
supported” by “abstaining from intoxicants” that could cloud the mind.
for many it is a big part of why they come; for those in recovery, not
being around drugs and alcohol is crucial. Please help us retain the
uniqueness of the collective creation that is Buddhafield by entering
into the spirit of this aspect of the Festival.
Our
peacekeeping team will be trained to challenge people publicly not
respecting our request, but please don’t wait for them: challenge
anyone you see drinking or smoking to explain how their awareness is
more clear and present with their drug of
choice than without.
