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.🎯
