Angulimala Sutta – a story of extraordinary transformation Angulimala was a brutal, bloody-handed bandit devoted to killing and slaying and yet his encounter with the Buddha resulted in a transformation which ultimately led to him becoming enlightened. How could this have happened and what does it mean in practical terms for spreading the Dharma in this world? Join us this Tuesday as Vimaladasa recounts this popular story about the mystery and power of meeting the enlightened mind. What was The Buddha really like? We are told that the Buddha broke through into a radically different state of being, transcending ordinary human consciousness. What might it have been like to encounter that? There was something magnetic, awesome, mysterious, and powerful about The Buddha. Some people even ‘WOKE UP!’ just by being in his presence. During this series we will go on a journey, where we will glimpse The Buddha by imagining our way into some of the brilliant stories handed down to us - stories of an Enlightened Being interacting with the people he met. We’ll be asking ourselves, what we can learn about The Buddha from these stories…and we’ll attempt to bring some of those qualities into the situations and people that we encounter in our daily life.
