2ND BUDDHIST LECTURE

Geshe Dorjee Damdul la has agreed to give a series of Buddhist lecture and we are organizing our second lecture titled 'Introduction of Comprehensive Buddhism' at Japan Gompa, East of Kailash, New Delhi on 06.30pm, Sunday, 06 June 2010.

The first lecture on 23rd May went successfully with around 40 participants who were invigorated by Geshe la's introduction on Buddhism. Geshe la touched upon the basic fundamentals of Buddhism such like what is Buddhism, definitions and qualities of three precious jewels; Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. The best part is Geshe la's interpretation of Buddhism, ofcourse with his thorough knowledge and wisdom on buddhism shares realistic approach of relating examples which normally occurs with us.

Geshe la was generous enough to give us his precious time and i believe that such opportunities will not arise later if we miss it.
