The Ripa International Center (RIC) Hilfigweg 10, CH – 3172 Niederwangen, Bern, Switzerland

According to Buddhist teachings, the inherent nature of all sentient beings is fundamentally good, although temporarily veiled by fear, doubt and mistrust. Embracing our insecurities with openness and loving-kindness, developing trust in our basic goodness and allowing the gentleness of our humanity to emerge could well be the cornerstone of the inner path that leads to a more compassionate engagement with society.
