Padmasambhava En Las Fronteras Del Ser Y El Estar

From Centro Budista de Valencia on Tue, 15 Jan, 2013 - 00:00
Desde el corazón del Buda Amitabha, los rayos de luz irradiaban hasta entrar en el capullo de una flor de loto en el lago Danakosha.

Tras su maduración, apareció un niño maravilloso, adornado con las marcas mayores y menores y sentado en un loto de mil pétalos.

Glorioso Guru Padmasambhava, por favor protégeme y guíame hasta que alcance el Despertar completo.

En esta charla vamos a explorar el simbolismo del nacimiento milagroso de Padmasambhava y su posible significado para nuestras vidas. Miraremos temas relacionadas con la receptividad espiritual, la identidad, saddha y la irrupción de lo inesperado en nuestras vidas.

A Rhyme for a Friend's Ordination

A Rhyme for a Friend's Ordination

From San Francisco Buddhist Center on Mon, 14 Jan, 2013 - 04:58Wherein the poet attempts to revalorize Mother Goose (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_Is_the_House_That_Jack_Built) in the hopes of drawing out themes of conditioned co-arising and interdependence (with likely misplacements of ‘who’ and ‘that’). After hearing it, Ethan told me that not only had I revalorized it, I had also ethicized and psychologized it. This is why we get along, Ethan and I. But I digress.

This is the House that Dawn Built

That lies in the house that...
