Bhante and the Bodhisattva Spirit

From Community Highlights on Fri, 31 May, 2019 - 00:00
Dayanandi shares how she was encouraged and inspired by Bhante’s teachings on the Bodhicitta spirit. "Bhante encouraging shared collective community the creative conditions challenged us to go beyond us. As we were young and had a lot of energy, we took on Bhante’s task of creating the conditions for the Bodhicitta to arise. It was spiritually nurturing to attend Bhante’s lectures. They were very strong. It was through Bhante’s dedicated, clear mind and friendliness, by him sharing his heartfelt inspiration, it contributed to the energy and spark in our dedication to his vision." This talk was given on 15th April, 2019 at Dharmadhara in California, USA, on a women’s ordination training retreat.
