Rev. Kaspalita is an ordained priest in the Order of Amida Buddha and is married to Rev. Satyavani Robyn, also a Buddhist priest.
As well as running Malvern Sangha together, they also run Writing Our Way Home, to help people slow down and fall in love with the world through writing.
Pureland Buddhism is a tradition which traces its roots back to the historical Buddha, who lived 2500 years ago in ancient India. Pureland travelled through China and into Japan, where in medieval times it became a powerful movement. From Japan, it travelled to the UK. In 1998 the Amida Order came into being when three people took vows with Dharmavidya.
In September 2010 Kaspalita and Satya moved to Malvern, and created a space for Pureland practice.
