Talking at the 1999 Order Convention, Sangharakshita speaks about the Buddhist vision of history as cyclic, and that Buddhism also arises and declines. He enumerates six emphasis of the FWBO/TBMSG, of which the centrality of Going for Refuge is the most important, and says that although the movement is flourishing this is not guaranteed. He states that disharmony within the Order is more damaging than opposition from without, that the Order needs to be in true harmony, and the only means by which this can happen is that sufficient Order Members make their Going for Refuge real.
