Event Description

We see images of Buddha everywhere - from tattoos, to interior design. A large statue of Buddha Shakyamuni is the main element on a Buddhist shrine. But who IS Buddha Shakyamuni? What are his qualities? Why would we want to know about him and listen to his advice? In this half-day course we'll learn about the inspiring qualities of the Enlightened Buddha and the meaning behind the Liberating Prayer - an homage to Buddha. By learning about Buddha himself, we can gain confidence in his advice on how to become peaceful and happy, and feel inspired to try it out in our daily life.

Everyone welcome. No experience necessary.
