The Heart of Buddhism

From Sheffield Buddhist Centre on Thu, 4 Jan, 2024 - 00:00

New Year, new Sangha Night theme. With this one we're going right to the core, and will be exploring what is perhaps the most fundamental, uncompromising and sublime expression of the Buddhist vision of life, the Bodhisattva Ideal. Satyajyoti will begin by opening the door at least a little bit for us into this realm of wisdom and compassion, and how we might begin to transform our lives in the light of this Ideal right now.

Back in the day, people would invoke the magical rite of increase to become wealthy and prosperous. But the Buddha discovered a far more powerful 'magic' that can bring about the highest abundance in ourselves and the world. Prajnahridaya will be exploring what this is and how we can put it into practice.
