Event Details
In this enlightening webinar, we invite you to embark on a transcendent journey with Ricardo Guerrero, the President of the Spanish Association of Buddhism and head of the Institutional Relations and Buddhist Affairs department of the Lumbini Garden Foundation. He will unveil the remarkable odyssey behind the Great Buddha Project in Spain, a project that has been eight years in the making. The objective of this project is the creation of the Great Buddha Centre, which will be the first ecumenical Buddhist center in Europe, and the only one of its kind in the world. This initiative is not just about Buddhism; it's about a holistic approach to humanity, peace, and East-West Dialogue, integrating the transformative power of compassion, body-mind-spirit integration.
In today's turbulent world, marred by regional conflicts, wars, and global health challenges, this project emerges as a beacon of hope. Through the fusion of artistic expression and educational enrichment, it transcends borders and nurtures understanding, creating a space where diverse backgrounds come together to explore the profound teachings of Buddhism from a social and philosophical view, more than religious or devotional.
One of the most compelling aspects of this journey is Ricardo's tireless efforts to bridge Asia and Spain, bringing the wisdom and knowledge from the East to the West. With numerous travels to Asia, he has forged connections, enriching the East-West Dialogue.
Ricardo will be joined by a distinguished panel of experts from Europe, America, and Asia, all sharing a common interest and mission in their journey. Their backgrounds span the realms of religion, creative arts and education, reaffirming the transformative potential of these disciplines in building a brighter future for all.
