2021 – The year of the resident community at Gomde UK
In many traditional paintings, the Buddha can be seen in the right-hand corner pointing at the moon in the opposite corner. The moon symbolises the truth, the way things really are, and illustrates that the Buddha can’t make you liberated but he can point out the way, show you the path. For those who wish to traverse it, the Buddha’s teaching provides a path from suffering to peace, from confusion to liberation.
The Buddhist tradition is extremely rich and can benefit everyone, from those who simply want to lead a more meaningful life to those who wish to gain enlightenment for the sake of us all. Here at Gomde, we want the Buddhas’ wisdom and insight to be available not only for current generations but for countless future generations, in a form that can be shared and practiced – a living tradition.
