Join us on an in-depth journey into the essence of suffering and enlightenment, guided by the story of Siddhartha—the man who became Buddha. We will explore:
* The social and religious context in India before the Common Era;
* The four encounters that shattered the young prince's illusions;
* His radical choice to leave palace life and embark on the path of asceticism;
* The moment of awakening under the Bodhi tree and the fundamental teachings – the Middle Way, the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path;
Life after enlightenment and the influence of Buddha in history and the modern world.
We reflect on the paradox between attachment and true freedom, and how this ancient approach can be practically applied in everyday life today.
