This educational conference invites participants to learn and share about the importance of practising Compassion, an important area of Buddhist practice due to the rise of child abuse and family violence in the world. This event to be held in Singapore and supported by The
International Buddhist Academy of Nepal, hopes to raise the awareness of practising Great Compassion within the family and thus, for the society one lives in.
The conference is divided into four half-day seminars of which four conference speakers in each half day seminar will speak on the foundation, right practices and effects of Compassion from their varied education and training backgrounds. The themes for the four half-day seminars are: The Bodhisattva Path, Handling Difficulties and Gaining Happiness, Right Practice, and Creating A Better World.
Participants will be given two to ten reference books depending on their participation levels. The books comprise conference papers scripted by the speakers and are valuable gifts for the participants. As this is a not-for-profit project, the fees collected will be used to achieve the goals of Global Dharma.
