"Be True to Yourself, stop comparing" - How Buddhism help reveal our true self

As new students walking on this campus, have you ever have feeling of insufficiency as we compared ourselves to those brilliant minds arround us?

According to Buddhist doctorine, suffering arise because of these unnecessary comparisons. Such negative thought would go so far as to hinder our humbleness to seek from othhers. Swinging to the other extreme, if we completely isolate ourself from refering to our peers is self-arrogance.

To develop genuine admiration to other people without exploiting our true self would make huge difference. Such a small flip of thought, however, is not easy ...

Let's come to share and discuss on how to reveal our innate potential and to develop genuine seeking spirit. An introduction to general buddhist concepts welcoming everyone who would like to improve themselves, and

seek for spiritual elevation.
