Sub-35’s Group – Which would you rather be: bored or challenged?
Sub-35’s Group – Which would you rather be: bored or challenged?
Thursday 14th March 2019
7:30pm - 10:00pm
Led by Sadayasihi, Kevin and Kasey
The Sub-35s group in Dublin has been established in recognition of the need for a space where people aged 35 and under can meet, share their experiences, practice together, and develop meaningful connections and friendships based on the Dharma (the Buddha’s teachings).
The Dublin Buddhist Centre is part of a worldwide Buddhist movement called the Triratna Buddhist Community which has primarily been described as a network of friendships in the Dharma.
Similarly, the Sub-35s vision is that it will be a welcoming place for people interested in exploring meditation and Buddhism with the support and friendship of their peers.
It will also link in with the wider Young Triratna movement via the annual retreat for Young Buddhists each October in the UK.
Which would you rather be: bored or challenged?
Vajrashura first got involved in Buddhism at the age of 22 and has thrown himself into living a vivid Buddhist life since then. Now, after nearly 20 years of Buddhist practice, he is about to go away on a four month retreat in Spain, where he will be supporting 16 men to be ordained into the Triratna Buddhist Order of which he is a member.
On this Sub-35s night, he will be talking about how important it has been for him to steer to the deep in one’s life, and to not accept the boredom and meaningless that regular life has all to ready to offer. He will talk about how positive challenge is one of the vital ingredients of a fulfilled life, and how we can seek out that positive challenge ourselves through living a Buddhist life.
Who It’s For
The Sub 35 group is open to anyone who is 35 years or younger and is suitable for all levels of experience. It meets monthly, and begins with meditation, followed by a discussion of Buddhist principles relevant to young people.
In particular, it will explore how practicing as a Buddhist can help transform the world we live in.
