About this program

You will embark on an exciting journey to discover the power of Right Livelihood, one of the eightfold paths taught by the Buddha. Right Livelihood means earning a living in ways that do not harm others or ourselves and contribute positively to the world. You will learn how this principle can make you a true superhero in everyday life!
