- Join us for a general introductory talk on the Buddha’s teachings
Monday 27 May, 6:30 to 8 pm IST, in-person and on Zoom
What is the mind? Where does it come from? Is the mind the brain? What can we do with our mind? Why do we experience pain and pleasure? What is the purpose of our life? What is Buddha?
We will explore these questions together during this introductory talk given by Nico
Nico is a Buddhist student from Belgium who has been following the teachings of the Tibetan lamas since 2012 and completed various meditation retreats. Prior to that, he was the head of a web agency in Brussels.
In 2014, deeply inspired by his meeting with Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Nico took a turn in his life with the decision to completely dedicate his time to the study and practice of the Buddha's teachings.
After spending 4 years studying and meditating at Dharma centres in Dharamsala, Kathmandu and Bodhgaya, the lamas gave him the advice to live and study at Nalanda Monastery in the South of France. Nico completed 5 years of intense studies with Geshe Gyaltsen there and then decided to come back to India in order to continue his studies with Geshe Dorji Damdul at Tibet House, the Cultural Center of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in New Delhi.
Nico has led several retreats and pilgrimages in India and has previously taught at Chökorling, the local FPMT centre in Toulouse, France. These days, Nico is very happily living in Delhi, studying at Tibet House and serving at Tushita.
Open to all, beginners and experienced students alike! You do not need any background in Buddhism to join.
