The Milinda Talk Resource Group

Milinda Talk Two: The essence of the Uttaratantrashastra, one of the main teachings that expounds in detail the notion of buddha nature as the main essence of our being, or the nature of our mind.

Miguel Oramas and Javier Torales will present the essence of this teaching in a simple to understand and interactive way, with the hope that it will be an invitation for all those who attend to appreciate the great potential of these teachings in helping us realize our own true nature, who we really are.
