Amida Trust becomes two organisations - Amida Trust and Tariki Trust

Statement from Dharmavidya, the Head of the Amida Order, sent around as an email this morning (1 Dec 2011). For Caroline's statement please scroll down.

Dear friends

You will probably have heard by now that a reorganisation is taking
place within the Amida organisation. This public letter is to tell you
how this will work from the Amida Trust side. I'm sorry that it is
long, but you can pick out what interests you. If it comes to you more
than once, please accept my apologies for the duplication.

In July Caroline resigned from the Amida Order and in consequence she
will now create a new organisation. An agreement has been reached in
broad principles. She will form a new Pureland Buddhist charity,
possibly under the name Tariki Trust. This is currently taking shape.
Half the assets of the old organisation will go to this new
organisation. This creates new opportunities and challenges for those of
us who continue the journey with Amida Trust in its new circumstance. In
broad we intend to proceed by the same principles that have always stood
us in good stead and to reinforce and deepen them. The strength of Amida
Trust is our people - us - and working together in the freedom created
by the new arrangements great things are certainly possible.
