Developing Deep Friendships with Bodhisattvas
Listen now
Description
Rev. Amanda Robertson explains who the primary Bodhisattvas are in Mahayana Buddhism, and how we can make use of 'their' help in our daily practice. She encourages us to hold our Hearts open to the seen and the unseen, and have the courage to look and see what IS. Blind faith is not required in Buddhism, and, the faith to remain open to things we don't understand or have not yet experienced for ourselves is essential. Nothing in Buddhism is taken on faith forever, this practice is about proving the Buddha's teachings true for ourselves. This talk was given at Shasta Abbey on July 16, 2023.
