Jayarava.org is a more or less static place for me to store and display examples of my work in various mediums. It doesn't get updated very often, but it provides a backdrop to my other activity on the internet. This website is where you will find examples of my Art, Writing and Music. I've also included some thoughts about Buddhism.
I've just added a new page with some visual resources and essays
relating to paṭicca-samuppāda. (9 Jan 2010)
Just uploaded my translations of the Pāli source texts for the five niyamas.
Formerly I was a lot more active on the internet but these days my efforts are concentrated on two sites.

A resource for visualising and calligraphy of Buddhist mantras.
A guide to Sanskrit and Pali names used in the Triratna Buddhist Order.
