πͺ Buddhism and the Self
Who are you, really?

π§ββοΈ Expect fresh insights, guided reflections, and a chance to see βyourselfβ in a whole new light.

π§© Meditation Session: The Five Hindrances
Why is it so hard to sit still?
Buddhism teaches that the Five Hindrances β sloth, doubt, aversion, craving, and restlessness β cloud the mind and make meditation challenging. In this session, weβll explore these obstacles and learn how understanding them can make our practice lighter, steadier, and kinder.
π§ββοΈ Expect simple insights, gentle reflection, and a quiet space to try silent meditation together. The session will be guided by Brother Jia Jie.
