From Buddhist Action Month 2016 on Sat, 25 Jun, 2016 - 20:39

Vidyamala: On Building Bridges To Buddhism In The World

From Buddhist Action Month 2016 on Tue, 21 Jun, 2016 - 04:00

For Buddhist Action Month 2016 we asked our friends from around the world to say what the Bodhisattva Ideal means to them…

Vidyamala is the inspirational founder of the Breathworks movement, introducing deep mindfulness practice for those suffering from chronic pain and stress. Here she explores how innovative approaches can revitalise the Dharma as traditional Buddhism finds its place in a world that desperately needs its message of wisdom and compassion.
