Asceticism in the Digital Age Conference

14 September 2025

Virtual (Live Online Platform)

Upcoming Event: Asceticism in the Digital Age — Ancient Wisdom for Modern Life

This inaugural global conference focuses entirely on the Dhutanga — the thirteen ancient Buddhist practices of rigorous, simple living. We've gathered an essential group of leading scholars, respected monastic teachers, and dedicated professionals to build a functional framework for applying these profound principles to our complex, fast-paced modern world.

Key Focus Areas

  • The Science of Simplicity: Exploration of new research demonstrating the neurological and psychological benefits of focused mental and physical restraint.
  • Practical Application Workshops: Sessions dedicated to translating core concepts like contentment and self-control into specific modern contexts, including:
    • Environmental Sustainability: Adopting practices that minimize ecological impact.
    • Ethical Business Leadership: Navigating corporate challenges with integrity and moral clarity.

This symposium is critical for preserving and advancing this ancient spiritual wisdom, offering a clear path toward understanding how genuine inner freedom (liberation) remains accessible today.
