Introduction
This book is intended primarily as a tribute to the late Venerable Kapila-
vaððho Bhikkhu (William August Purfurst, known later as Richard
Randall) for whom the English Sangha Trust was formed.He stands out as
a man who started and developed the founding of the first English Theravæda
Sangha in the Western world. For the sake of context it includes a very brief
history of the development of Theravæda Buddhism in the UK. Only the
major steps of this development have been recorded here, though many
other groups have contributed to the spreading of Buddhism in the UK.
This book has been compiled by the editor as a way of saying thank you
to the Venerable Kapilavaððho and to all past Buddhists who, through
their interest and hard work, have provided for him, and countless others,
the opportunity to benefit from the Buddha’s teaching. Hence the title
“Honour Thy Fathers”.

Acknowledgments
I would like to thank the many people who have given valuable assistance
and permission to copy and use their material; some of these organisa-
tions are listed below. Many thanks to Bhikkhu Pesala who has given
considerable time and effort in helping me produce this book and whose
kind words and encouragement kept me going when my mind was at low
tide. Thanks also to my niece Joanne Fishman, a computer wiz kid for
helping to format this book, and to Gerlinde Fearney — who gave time
and effort to prepare this book for printing. Finally many thanks to my
friends and family who have had to put up with me talking of nothing else
but this book for a few years! It is always a pleasure to be with people who
are willing to give of their time and expertise freely towards a project that
may be of use to others.
