Hello everyone, reminder that we have the welcome tea going on this evening!

That’s a wrap on Welcome Tea 🌿

Thank you to everyone who came down to spend the evening with us, learn more about NUSBS, and get to know some new faces along the way.

We hope the session gave you a better sense of who we are, what we do, and what you can look forward to this semester.

🌿What does it actually mean to be a Buddhist? 🌿

For many of us, Buddhism may first bring to mind temples, chanting, rituals or simply a label we grew up with. But beyond these outward forms, what does it really mean to practise the Buddha’s teachings in everyday life?

Join Sister Sylvia Bay as we explore Buddhism beyond labels and towards sincere practice, which the meaning of taking refuge in the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, the Five Precepts, and how right understanding, ethical conduct and mental development can shape the way we live.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for β€œWhat Does It Mean to Be a Buddhist? Beyond Labels, Towards Practice” with Sister Sylvia Bay 🌿

From clearing up common misconceptions about what it means to be Buddhist to sharing plenty of laughs along the way, Sister Sylvia made the evening both insightful and wonderfully light-hearted.

We hope you left with a clearer sense of how Buddhism goes beyond labels and rituals, and towards sincere understanding and practice.

Grateful to have learnt, reflected, and laughed together πŸ’š

You don’t have to be struggling to feel the pressure.

Work harder. Stay ahead. Build your portfolio. Get the GPA. Secure the internship. Land the job. And somewhere along the way, it becomes easy to believe:

β€œOnce I get there, then I’ll finally be happy.”

But what if happiness was never waiting at the finish line?πŸ€”

Join Sayalay Sujata for a reflection on success, ambition and the conditioning that shapes how we chase β€œmore.” Drawing from Buddhist teachings and her experience in counselling, this session explores how our inner patterns influence the way we respond to pressure, achievement and craving.

Maybe the question isn’t whether ambition is good or bad, but whether we understand what is driving it.🎯
