10 Days Introduction to Buddhism Course

„To study about Buddhist Philosophy is to study about yourself. During our courses, experienced teachers explain Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and meditation from a modern perspective, giving instruction in order to help you apply this ancient wisdom to increase peace, happiness, and compassion in your daily life. Topics include:
- The Mind and Emotions
- Karma
- Rebirth
- Love and Compassion
- The Nature of Reality“

It was such a nice experience. 10 days without a phone, in silence (we were aloud to speak for 1h a day during the discussion group session), with a lot of teachings, meditations, thoughts, karma jobs and 106 people living together in a community without knowing each other, without talking to each other but with such a deep connection - kind of magical.
