Compassion in Action: Peace and Non-Violence in Buddhism

Описание: Compassion in Action: Peace and Non-Violence in Buddhism

War and violence do not lead to any gain or victory for anyone – it only leads to more rage, broken families, and endless pain!
It is the nature of war to turn one another into enemies. And in a world of violence and conflict, there can only be more suffering.
Let us therefore reignite our practice of compassion and wisdom as taught by the Buddha, and reflect on the significance of peace in the world and how we can develop it for the benefit of all sentient beings.
We invite you to practice the Dharma – the sublime teachings of the Buddha – by walking this journey together.
Happy Vesak Day!
