Discover Sangharakshita’s personal collection of objects
In time we plan to catalogue Sangharakshita’s entire collection of objects. They range from his days in Kalimpong, India up to gifts presented in the last few months of his life. Many will be detailed on these pages and some curated in exhibitions at Urgyen House which may help illuminate the life and character of Sangharakshita.
The objects featured below may be found in Sangharakshita’s living room, conservatory and bedroom.
(Visit the Precious Teachers exhibition pages to see many other fascinating objects).
