What? World Religions: Buddhism: a basic introduction to the beliefs and practices of Buddhism and Buddhists, part of a series for adults aimed at understanding those who may hold quite different beliefs than we do, in our increasingly-diverse communities and world
When? Fridays 6:45 - 8:45 p.m October 28, November 4, 11. 19
Where? Meeting at Green Hedges School, Vienna, Virginia.
We'll briefly explore the history of the religion (and even the question of whether it's a religion) and its varieties, and focus more on the ethical aspects -- what does the religion teach? what sort of lives does this religion encourage?
Cost: We invite participants to contribute in the range of $20 to $80 for the series, or $5-$20 per session, as you are able to do with joy and ease. This amount helps cover the costs involved in providing the space and materials and leadership for the sessions.
More in this series: Judaism, Winter 2012. Islam, Spring 2012 Hinduism, Fall 2012. Christianity, Winter 2013. New and Primal Religions, Spring 2013.
