Clear Vision Trust
A Buddhist audio-visual media project and a UK registered charity. We work in a beautiful office at the top of the Manchester Buddhist Centre, UK and see all our efforts as an expression of Right Livelihood, the fifth limb of the Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path.
Founded in the early 1990s, our purpose was to record the teachings of the Venerable Urgyen Sangharakshita, founder of the Triratna Buddhist Order and Community.
We maintain the Triratna video and image archives and provide a steady flow of new and archive material for our Buddhist movement worldwide. Outside the Buddhist world, we are very well known for our work for schools and young people.

VideoSangha
VideoSangha has been set up to enable people within the Triratna mandala to share what they are doing, what they are inspired by and just to show what they look like – through the medium of video. www.videosangha.net

As part of the Triratna Buddhist Community and a registered charity in the UK, we’ve been producing titles on meditation and Buddhism for over 30 years – and now, we’ve gone digital!
Through the Digital Legacy project we’ve digitally remastered our main collection of lectures and talks by Urgyen Sangharakshita (founder of Triratna) and made them available for the first time on CD.
We have over 650 titles, with more added regularly! There are many treasures here – who knows what you’ll discover? From Zen to children’s audio – whatever you find, we hope you’ll find it inspiring in your own search for Truth…
