Love, compassion, and peace — these words are at the heart of all spiritual endeavors. Although we intuitively resonate with their meaning and value, for most of us, the challenge is how to embody what we know: how to transform these words into a vibrant, living practice. In these times of conflict and uncertainty, this transformation is far more than an abstract ideal; it is an urgent necessity. Peace in the world begins with us.

Hoe kan het dat de arrogante collega, die iedereen slecht behandelt, toch succes heeft en de carrièreladder beklimt? Hoe kan het dat de moeder, die altijd taart aan de buren geeft, haar kind verliest? Het boeddhisme biedt een andere verklaring: Karma.

Het idee van karma helpt ons de bovenstaande voorbeelden te plaatsen, het levenspad te begrijpen en gerechtigheid te erkennen.
