Freedom is something that most people search for in these times. Freedom to do what we want and not be controlled by others or outer circumstances.
According to the Buddhist teachings true freedom is a state of mind. Even if we have outer freedom if our mind is controlled by negative emotions and thought patterns we will not feel free no matter where we are.
These events are part of "Dharmadhara Studien-und Praxisprogramm".
