Like The Moon Released From A Cloud

From Padmaloka Retreat Centre on Mon, 19 Sep, 2011 - 00:00
Suriyavamsa tells us the story of the murderer Angulimala, who has a complete change of heart after trying to catch and kill the Buddha and finding it impossible. The tale illustrates how enlightenment can't be grasped or understood by ourselves as we are; it requires a fundamental shift of quality, not quantity. Angulimala shows us a way of attaining the higher perspective of the Buddha through surrender, accepting training and service. Talk given during Padmaloka's Summer Retreat, July 2011.
