Your Money or Your Life

From London Buddhist Centre on Mon, 30 Jun, 2014 - 18:15

From London Buddhist Centre on Mon, 30 Jun, 2014 - 18:15Money makes for wonderful means but terrible ends. If we focus our life a mere symbol of relative value then we risk alienating ourselves from the very things we seek - love, meaning and rich experience. Could money instead be a means to not just a better world, but to Enlightenment itself?

Amalavajra is an ex-City broker turned fundraiser. This talk was given to a public audience as part of the June 2014 ‘BAM’ series: Buddhist Action Month.

Birmingham Buddhist Centre runs a project to support carers with their stress management. As part of BAM, we went for a vegan lunch option today.
