12th ANNUAL DHARMA REALM BUDDHIST YOUNG ADULTS CONFERENCE
Buddhism Applied: Dealing with Everyday Life
Every year, the Dharma Realm Buddhist Young Adults (DRBY) host(s) a conference that brings together college students and young professionals (people in their 20s and 30s) to discuss and reflect on important issues that confront us every day and how to approach them through a spiritual lens (without all the heavy baggage of a do-or-die dogma).
Why do we always say "There's no place like home" and yet we can never stay there too long? Why can't we just stay connected but still be free? Why can't we stay connected and yet be free at the same time? What insight does Buddhism bring to issues regarding our world, our society, our relationships, and ultimately, ourselves?
Every year since 1999, the Dharma Realm Buddhist Young Adults host an annual conference that discusses some of these issues. There is no requirement that you have to be Buddhist or even remotely so to participate. It is highly recommended just going--if just to meet new people in order to hear and share different perspectives.
Come join us for the 12th annual Dharma Realm Buddhist Young Adults Spring Conference, where we will discuss how the wisdom of this ancient tradition applies to issues that affect us every day.
