A great gesture for the continuity of Zen Buddhism in Italy
Il Cerchio, a Religious Foundation for the diffusion of Zen Buddhism, is a place of spiritual and community growth that has welcomed lay and ordained practitioners for years.
The Circle brings to today's world the possibility of following a millenary Path of awareness aimed at a profound development of knowledge of oneself and of others.
A practice that leads to recognizing oneself in the other, to developing compassion, generosity; to following the path of the Bodhisattva and to helping all beings.
