Story

Objectives of the project for the Buddhist Center

MEDITATION


«Meditation is a silent heart, a peaceful mind for a more livable life». kjkjkjn hkjkk Buddha.

ETERNITY


«At the end of the day, I’m in peace, because my intentions are good and my heart is pure».

LIFE


«The past is already gone, the future is not here yet. There is only one moment for you to live». – Buddha.

The project for the construction of the great White Jade Karuna Buddha on the European continent, in the province of Cáceres, Spain, has great importance and significance for the international Buddhist community because it allows building a bridge of peace, understanding and harmony with the West through the teachings and principles of Buddhism: Love and compassion. — Cáceres will be the universal city of exchange between the four cultures: Christian, Islamic, Judaic and Eastern.

The Lumbini Garden Project represents a milestone in the consolidation of Buddhism in Spain. It is a symbol of fraternity between different traditions, different religions and different continents. I believe the Lumbini Garden can become a bridge for the spread of Buddhist culture in Spain and it will allow people in Spain to learn more about Buddhism and its practice of serenity and non-violence.

This is a unique and fascinating project. Cáceres will be lucky to have such a great Buddha statue. This will put Cáceres, Extremadura and Spain on the Buddhist map once and for all. Thanks for making this possible.
