This collection of previously unpublished talks traces the development of Sangharakshitas presentation of the Dharma in the West from 1965 to 2011. It includes some of his characteristic teachings in their earliest forms (the levels of Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels, for example), and makes other talks accessible for the first time in published form. We see the unfolding of the Buddhist movement he founded, from his talks before the movement began, his early teachings that foreshadow aspects of its nature, and then its beginnings in a basement in 1960s London.
