'Mutual helpfulness in leading the spiritual life - such is the foundation of the buddhaland'
'Sometimes I think work - real work in which one believes -
is the greatest enjoyment in life.'
-Sangharakshita
A Buddhafield (in Sanskrit 'Buddha-ksetra, also traslates as Buddha land or Buddha country) is a realm created by the skillful action of a Buddha, where the conditions are perfect for the spiritual development of it's inhabitants. It is the positive sphere of influence of an enlightened being.
In one's own experience it is the positive sphere of influence created by our own efforts to continually develop kindness and awareness, in body speech and mind.
When we come together with others on retreat, it is the positive sphere of influence created by our collective and individual efforts to continually cultivate kindness and awareness, in body, speech and mind.
