Young People's Group
Friday 6 March 7pm – 9pm
Right Livelihood is an important aspect of the Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path. The Buddha encouraged his followers to engage in compassionate activity, and to make their living in a way that does not cause harm and that is ethically positive.
But what does that look like in today's world?
How do we engage with work as Buddhists, and what are the options if you want to work with other Buddhists?
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the age group for the young people's group?
