Introduction to Buddhism
About the book " Introduction to Buddhism "
Beginning with Buddha’s life story, this concise guide explains the essential elements of the Buddhist way of life, such as understanding the mind, rebirth, karma and ultimate truth, and what it means to be a Buddhist. Meditation is explained clearly and simply as a tool for developing qualities such as inner peace, love and patience. The emphasis throughout is on the practical application of Buddhist ideas and practice to finding solutions to everyday problems. Those interested in Buddhism and meditation will find this book a rich source of guidance and inspiration.

How to Change?
In this series Gen Mila will be introducing the necessary conditions on how to change, called the five forces.
To fulfill our deepest wish – to attain lasting happiness and complete freedom from suffering, these cannot be attained by external means, such as the acquisition of material wealth.
Meditation is not only medicine, but a recipe for happiness. We will be looking at the various states of mind, views and attitudes to cultivate to bring about happiness for our self and others.
Referenced book Universal Compassion.
