On the course we will cover: We’ll take\, as our starting point\, how different our times are nowadays to when the Buddha was alive\, and how there is much that is still the same.  We’ll explore what a society genuinely informed by Buddhist values might look like\, based upon the example of Dr. Ambedkar’s Buddhist revolution in India.   We will look at issues such as the environment crisis\, the discontentment of consumerism\, and our relationship with technology and money.   We’ll finish the course by looking at how we can respond to the needs of the world as the Buddha would do if he were walking the earth today.Suitable for: Anyone who is interested in learning more about Buddhism and how to live well in the modern world. 								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n									This course is for anyone who is interested in learning more about Buddhism and how to live well in the modern world. 								\n				\n				\n		\n		\n					\n				\n				\n																\n															\n															\n				\n				\n				\n					Vajrashura				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n				\n									Vajrashura started practicing yoga and learnt to meditate while in university doing a Masters in High Performance Computing.
