Speaker: Sensei Beate Genko Stolte

Others constantly influence us and we constantly influence the world around us. Through exploring the mind, we come to understand our pretenses and see the truth of interconnectedness and our own true nature.

I found this talk very enjoyable and informative - quite a range of subtopics such as facebook, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the human longing for connection, sangha and friendship - thank you!
