Karma, Conditionality and Ethics

From Bristol Buddhist Centre on Thu, 28 Jun, 2012 - 00:00
Lokabandhu explores the Buddhist approach to the three 'big words' of Karma, Conditionality and Ethics, especially looking at their 'near enemies': ways in which we can subtly, but significantly, misunderstand the crucial concepts that lie behind them.

Unconventional

From London Buddhist Centre on Wed, 27 Jun, 2012 - 16:53Buddhism is not about fitting in. The Buddha didn’t fit into the society around him, and neither should we.

Shakyakumara's Training Tip #1 - Mindfulness and Time Management

From Windhorse Evolution on Wed, 27 Jun, 2012 - 10:11
People often say, “You can’t manage time.” They’re basically right – time just happens, we can’t stop the clock ticking, we can’t go back in time.
