Russel Williams

Post by dreambow »

Russel Williams is well worth listening to on YouTube. The Buddhist Society of Manchester was founded in 1951, making it the second oldest buddhist organization in the country.
The Society continued to develop as a lay organization at its premises in Sale and did much to help establish the Dhamma in this country. The only surviving link with original group is Russel Williams who joined in 1957 and at the age of 93 still continues to share his wisdom at regular meetings.
The Society has never advertised and relies on word of mouth to bring in new members. It makes no charge to those who attend its meetings and relies solely on the generosity of its members to sustain itself. Although its roots are are in the Theravada tradition people are not encouraged to develop a particular set of views or rely on knowledge derived from books. Instead they are helped to develop their own innate well-being and awareness in daily life.
