This week's FBA Podcast, is by Vidyamala titled "Can Buddhism Survive and Thrive In a Secular World?". Based on her experience of teaching both 'hard core' Buddhism on the one hand and secular mindfulness on the other in various countries and cultural contexts, Vidyamala explores two opposite positions that can be taken in response to this question. One can be 'liberal' and try to change Buddhism to align with popular values in society, or 'conservative' and try to change society to align with traditional Buddhist values. Is there a middle way between these two extremes, where Buddhism is dynamic, accessible and attractive and yet remains true to the uncompromising and radical teachings of the Buddha? Talk given at Manchester Buddhism Centre on 28th May 2011, as part of a series of free public talks entitled 'Buddhism and the Big Question'.
