Isn’t Buddhism all about suffering? So why do so many Buddhists seem genuinely… happy?
In this engaging and down-to-earth talk by Amalaketu, we’ll explore how Buddhist practice offers a radical rethinking of happiness—not as something we chase in the outside world, but as something we can uncover within. Through simple living, meditation, and insight, the Buddhist path leads us toward a deeper, more stable kind of contentment—one that isn’t blown about by life’s ups and downs.
Whether you’re new to Buddhism or a long-time practitioner, join us for an afternoon of reflection, humour, and practical inspiration.
