La Sangha - une réponse radicale au monde

From Centre bouddhiste Triratna de Paris on Thu, 29 Jan, 2015 - 00:00
Une exploration de la signification de la Sangha dont les liens qui l unissent sont bases sur les valeurs du Dharma et l expression de notre aller en refuge. Pratiquer vraiment la Sangha demande souvent d aller au dela du conditionnement et des valeurs du monde. Dans son essence, la Sangha est radicale et revolutionnaire. Conference donnee à l occasion de la fete de la Sangha au centre bouddhiste de Paris novembre 2014.
