The Buddha is still speaking to us from over 2,000 years ago. How can we best hear his message? How can take his teaching to heart? 21st century Americans tend to misunderstand and overlook the metaphysical and religious foundations of the teachings. Based on David Brazier book with the same name, the talk and subsequent Q & A will make the case that Buddhism is more than just a series of techniques to inflate the self and foster auto-eroticism and hedonism. Presented by dharma teacher, Shoju.
