About this Event
Never before in human history has a vision of hope been more essential. We need more than just advice on maintaining a positive mindset amid growing adversity or holding onto a distant vision of a better future. We require a precise, detailed, and reasoned method by which we can individually and collectively turn things around.
Otherwise, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and harbour a growing sense of fear and hopelessness about the future of humanity and our planet. We might feel as if we're helpless spectators trapped in a spiralling crisis with no obvious escape. This can lead to the inclination to turn away from the news, close the shutters, and hope it all goes away, attempting to maintain a positive outlook as the ship goes down. That our best efforts are merely ‘rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic’.
However, all is not lost. Buddha provided practical teachings not only on how to become stronger and more resilient in challenging times but also offered clear and precise instructions on solving these problems. These teachings address all our individual and collective issues, requiring less effort and energy than we currently expend on ineffective methods.
Kadampa Buddhism's practical, modern approach offers a universal vision of real hope for everyone, regardless of faith. This vision is grounded in clear logic and has the potential to solve all the problems we face. While the solution requires some effort, it is simpler than we think and entirely achievable.
