What is Enlightenment? Do we need it?

Speaker: Jacqueline Hobbs

In this talk Jacqueline will give her own unique perspective on the Tibetan Buddhist and Indian traditions of emancipation – based on her personal experience of the early stages of the food-free pathway. Using her linguistic ability to read the ancient text and her time spent living in Tibet, India and China since 1998 she will discuss the many different cultural definitions of enlightenment and their spiritual practices, exploring what the really mean and questioning whether we really need them.
