"In this talk I will describe my own journey from being a Tibetan and Zen Buddhist monk to a Buddhist lay person living in a modern European society. As a practising Buddhist today, I do not believe it is necessary to accept literally ancient Buddhist doctrines such as rebirth/reincarnation and the law of karma. The primary value of Buddhism, as I see it, is to provide us with tools to address the suffering and crises of our lives in this world, as individuals, members of a society and creatures of an eco-system. It is in this sense that I use the word “secular.”
I question the need to consider Buddhism as a religion, replete with rituals, hierarchies and dogmas, governed by the authority of monks and priests. I envisage Buddhism as a culture of awakening, open to all, that has demonstrated throughout its history the ability to re-imagine and re-invent itself. As a lay Buddhist, I seek to define Buddhism less in terms of achieving “nirvana” and more in terms of creating and cultivating an “eightfold path” that addresses every aspect of our humanity in this world"
