The Power of Love, the Love of Power

From Stockholms buddhistcenter on Tue, 1 Apr, 2014 - 00:00
Behind this title we find the first Buddhist ethical precept and Sangharakshitas distinction between operating in the Love Mode and operating in the Power Mode. A beautiful and engaged talk, responsive to her audience, where Kulanandi draws inspiration from the book The Ten Pillars of Buddhism, by Sangharakshita.

India today is in a process of astonishing social transformation across a wide spectrum of developmental stages: a few tribal people in the Andoman Islands still live more or less in the Stone Age and quite a number in the big ‘Metros’, like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, or Chennai, are...
