Celebrating Compassion with the English Dharma Group&TBA – Sunday, November 10

CH

As a partner of Compassionate Houston, the Texas Buddhist Association joins various faith and non-profit organizations in celebrating the Charter for Compassion’s 10th anniversary.

The Charter is an umbrella organization of many compassionate cities and individuals around the globe, united in the principle of creating a respectful, kind, and compassionate world.

The Buddha taught that to realize enlightenment, we must develop two qualities: wisdom and compassion, two wings that work together to enable flying.

EDG, on behalf of TBA, is taking part in celebrating the 10th anniversary by reading the Charter of Compassion during our Sunday Dharma talk on November 10, 2009,
