About the Event
Buddha's teachings invite us to deeply ponder the profound equality between ourselves and others. By realizing this equality, we develop a warm heart of respect and kindness towards everyone, regardless of their relationship to us.

It is said that equalizing self with others is the foundation for universal compassion and drives a Bodhisattva’s inner journey to full enlightenment.
