E-Dharma – Buddhism on the Net: Conference and Course on Introduction to the Buddhism in Porto
Porto and Cucujães, Oliveira de Azeméis – Portugal | March 4 – May 27, 2009
The site E-Dharma, the Buddhism on the Net, intends as mission to divulge the path of the Buddha through the means available in the internet and is developing the forum and blog components respectively at www.sangha.e-dharma.org and esanghapt.wordpress.com.
Through these new sites E-Dharma intends to promote a true spirit of cooperation and friendship among the whole Buddhist Portuguese Speaking Community ( and more ) .
We hope that it becomes an useful tool, so, please use it ! Comment, give suggestions, send information to E-Dharma !
After the first conference was organized by E-Dharma team in Porto, with Tsering Paldrön’s presence, they felt the need to create an introduction course to the Buddhism, that will be organized with this format by the first time in the North of Portugal – More information below.
The idea is also to diversify and to create options: of places, of opportunities to know people and ideas. It is a small seed. E-Dharma would like to develope partnerships, and to take dialogue to other places and moments, and therefore, if you have ideas, if you have a space or if you wish to organize an event in your area, contact E-Dharma !
One of the most powerful messages of the Buddha, is that the natural state of the mind is luminous and pure. On every moment we can choose that positive side, luminous, of rising sun (in Chogyam Trungpa’s acquaintance image) and to create a happier mind/space for all to live in.
