Nirvana or Ataraxia?
Buddhism and the Greeks
Open to all.
Greek philosophy is said to be “a Way of Life” rather then a bunch of interesting and clever ideas. Can a familiarity with Greek philosophy – as a pre-Christian Western philosophical tradition – help Western Buddhists to understand Buddhism? This exploration of affinities in Plato, Aristotle, Epictetus, and Pyrrhonian Scepticism will bring alive some essential ideas that will strongly suggest that it can.
22 June, 6pm to 29 June, 2pm, at Madhyamaloka, Birmingham
With Sagaramati and Jnanaketu
