Mindfulness, Meditation, Diversity and Inclusion – 'I Am Because We Are'

Joyce Heart

Theme month 'Get off your kisses! Committed Buddhism'. To me, Buddha's teachings are essentially about how we live and behave with and towards others. It is about understanding suffering and developing a way of life that embraces our total humanity. That's why, in my opinion, engaged Buddhism also relates to a theme like 'Diversity and Inclusivity'. In this lecture I want to elaborate on this by means of (personal) reflections and meditations.
