Channel: The French Whisperer ASMR

Category: Education

Description: In this ASMR/bedtime story video, I tell you about Buddhism: what society and beliefs were like in Ancient India, the life of Siddartha Gautama, how Buddhism spread in Asia, the differences between various traditions (what are Theravada, Mahayana, Vajrayana, Zen, Tibetan or Tantric Buddhism...), and a lot of terms are explained as simply as possible, like Vedas, Karma, Middle Way, Samsara, Trantra, Mantra....
