Buddhist Wisdom for Human Happiness

An ICB Public Lecture - Prof. Guang Xing

Drawing from the Buddha’s wisdom, Prof. Guang Xing will shed light on the root causes of human unhappiness, how our thoughts and behaviors shape our lives, and how Buddhist philosophy can help us live with greater clarity, compassion, and peace.
