What we’re about
Hello old and new Friends, welcome back!
After taking a short break, the "Finding Inner Peace & Happiness Meetup Group'' is now returned! Are you ready to join our artist, cultural, and nature themed activities that are fun and beneficial to your mental and spiritual well being? Some of our previous high-demand activities include "Healing Art: Finding Flow in Nature," "Tree Meditation Experience," Meditative Chinese Calligraphy, etc. and more.
We are a team of dedicated volunteers from the Waterloo Buddha's Light Centre (WBLC - located at 9 Elgin St.), your spiritual and community hub supported by an International Buddhist NGO, the Fo Guang Shan (FGS) Temple of Toronto. Having approximately 300 branches worldwide, FGS is committed to promote Humanistic Buddhism via offering cultural, educational, charity and spiritual programs to not only the Buddhists but also anyone who is interested in the Buddhist teachings and practices.
The mission of this "Finding Inner Peace & Happiness Meetup Group" is to share with the general public some practical insights of the Buddhist life philosophy and mindfulness practices that can help you to develop your own skill sets to deal with daily life situations and enhance your spiritual and mental well being. Our goal is to walk with you on this journey of finding your inner peace and happiness!
We are intended to create for you a peaceful, equal, respectful, and non-judgmental community, where members from all walks of life, despite their different cultural or religious backgrounds, can come here to share interests, exchange thoughts, try new things, have fun, and to meet friends.
To ensure that anyone who wants to join us would not be affected by their financial conditions, all our events are FREE. We also welcome donations, which will all go back to support the cost of organizing our activities.
If you have any ideas or comments, please don't hesitate to let us know. We will try our best to offer activities that meet the community members' needs. We are looking forward to seeing you in our next events!
Metta,
Volunteers of WBLC
