Bhante Akaliko – Shaded by A Great Tree: Faith in the Buddha’s Path
24 February 2022 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Description
Sometimes it feels like we aren’t making any progress in our spiritual journey. We might lose confidence in our own abilities or think that the teachings simply don’t work. The Buddha often spoke about the necessity of faith but what did he mean by this term and how do we develop personal conviction in the Buddha’s path?
Join Bhante Akaliko for a guided meditation and a discussion about the nature of faith in Buddhist thought.
Speaker
