For Satyadasa the Buddhist path has been fulfilling and often joyous, but also full of doubts and obstacles. What does it mean to be a Buddhist in the West in the twenty-first century? And is being born with one hand a curse - or a blessing?
"I'm just pretending to be a Buddhist. I'm only on this solitary retreat because I've heard it's a good idea ... successful people don't need to meditate in damp huts ... they go on proper holidays. I am not successful, ergo, here I am."
Satyadasa is a member of the Triratna Buddhist Order. He leads retreats and classes for the London Buddhist Centre and is the Buddhist tutor at Eton College. After studying Law at Oxford and a spell as a crime reporter at the Old Bailey, he lived and worked at the Buddhist Centre for several years. He was born with one hand. Satyadasa now lives with his family in East London.
