This is a discussion group about Buddhism.
If you are on the path, have some knowledge about Buddhism and meditation, and want to discuss these topics with others, then this group is for you.
Our group is not meant to be a buddhism class and it's not meant to be a meditation class, either. If you don't have any knowledge of Buddhism and meditation, then please read a book and listen to lectures before joining this group.
The Buddhism & Happiness group is not a singles group. Singles are welcome to attend, but this group is not intended to provide you with opportunities to find dates!
To learn more about this group, read the About Us page: http://buddhism.meetup.com/578/about/
To become a member, you must have a photo of yourself posted and should have read the About Us page.
Cheers,
Suzanne

At our last meetup, we talked about the reasons why change can be difficult for us.
At this meetup, I'd like to continue this theme and explore the flipside of this - why accepting things without changing them can be equally as difficult in certain situations. Read more
