Thus Come, Thus Gone
















I have decided to finally end Buddha Torrents today. I'm sure to the delight of some people and to sadden others. I really don't have the time anymore to devote to postings and I feel the time is right to stop. There has been some interest by others to continue this blog, either as a website or a new blog and I very much support that. I however wont be involved with maintaining anything new. Its a shame that there hasn't been any similar blogs to this one but now with the death of Buddha Torrents I hope some seeds may sprout.

I would like to thank all those that contributed to the blog over the years and all the followers. This blog has allowed me to watch and listen to a wide variety of Buddhist material that I would never had a chance to otherwise see. I hope that the community will continue to share items of merit and enlighten those still on the way.

  10. Please don't do this..
    Your blog has been very helpful to me and so many others.. giving them peace.. i mean especially the books..
    May be you don't have time now but still you can continue to blog. All you have to do is blog less frequently. Continue to post once in a week or fortnightly or may be even once in a month.. come on, you will definitely find time once in a month.. may be.. i don't know.. its a humble request though.. please do consider..
    Thanks.. take care n God bless you..

  15. Aw, I was too late to enjoy what appears to have been a wonderful website.

    I may actually be the buddha due to this mark on my forehead and am struggling very much with which direction to take in life.... what is there for one after experiencing pure consciousness? struggling for the sake of struggling in a world entirely a dream?

  16. I think that I will take the Buddha's advice, and not believe anything anybody tells me, but find the truth for myself. The Universe, the Tao, the Dhamma, consciousness, have survived for an infinity, and still 'are', money and organisations have only made their way for a short period. Find the truth for you, and act on that, I'll support whatever we decide.
