Well, it's good to see mandatory "donation", especially when the seat price is above average monthly wage.
Re: The 7th Global Conference on Buddhism (GCB) "Buddhist SOLUT
why don't they teach outside
then the seat will be free.
then the seat will be free.
Re: The 7th Global Conference on Buddhism (GCB) "Buddhist SOLUT
Big events like that cost alot of money to stage, including flying all those monks from around the world and back again, accommodation, etc. If they let everyone in for free, they probably wouldn't even be able to hold it at all.
To the Buddha-refuge i go; to the Dhamma-refuge i go; to the Sangha-refuge i go.
Re: The 7th Global Conference on Buddhism (GCB) "Buddhist SOLUT
why is that?
not enough support.
if you let people free
you will get more than you need
the less you take, the more you have
the law of kamma

Greetings Manasikara,
Metta,
Retro.
What you say is correct. However, you wonder why, in this day and age, some thought couldn't be put towards "videoconferencing" technology. As a bonus, it could be streamed to "audience" members on the web. Lugging Sangha members overseas seems a rather inefficient use of sponsor dana. Surely some local monks/abbots supplemented by video hook-ups from other Sangha members across the globe would be sufficient.manasikara wrote:Big events like that cost alot of money to stage, including flying all those monks from around the world and back again, accommodation, etc. If they let everyone in for free, they probably wouldn't even be able to hold it at all.

"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."
Re: The 7th Global Conference on Buddhism (GCB) "Buddhist SOLUT
Yes, I see your point. Technology has come a long way, maybe these things can indeed be done much more efficiently and with much less expenditure. (I just felt like I had to stop the thread from descending into too much criticism...maybe I should have just left it alone...)retrofuturist wrote:Greetings Manasikara,

Not to drag this too far off topic, but in my experience videoconferencing, though useful, misses the majority of the interaction that one gets at a "real" conference.
