In this substantial lecture given at the London Buddhist Vihara on 14th October 1995, Sangharakshita delivered a fascinating series of vignettes introducing five great Buddhists who have all had a significant impact on modern Buddhism, especially in the West.
He gives portraits of the lives of Anagarika Dharmapala, Alexandra David-Neel, B.R.Ambedkar, Lama Govida and Dr. Edward Conze. He reveals glimpses of these individuals who, although uniquely different, possessed the same determination, courage, unconventionality and heroism and thereby transformed the world around them.
