Mitra means ‘friend’ and refers to someone who has made a commitment, at a special ceremony, to practising as a Buddhist in the FWBO. We provide special events and courses to help mitras deepen their practice and expand their knowledge of Buddhism.
For more info about what a mitra is in the Triratna Buddhist Community check out this page.
Sometimes these events are available only to people who have taken the further step of asking for ordination in the Triratna Buddhist Order.
