Introductory Practical Philosophy course
The course draws on the great philosophical ideas of east and west to examine their influences on our lives and show the way to a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
It gives guidance on the practice of mindful living in daily life and on how to test the ideas presented during each session in our own experience. The approach is practical rather than academic, and no prior knowledge is needed.

May all be free from disease
May all creatures have well being
