Great Faith, Great Wisdom Retreat, 2017 - day 1

By jvalamalini on Sat, 9 Sep, 2017 - 21:51

We had a wonderful first day of our Order-Mitra ‘Rainy Season Retreat’ today, with Ratnaguna on fine form exploring everything from what we can learn from the language of the heptapods in the film ‘Arrival’, through the way the Mahayana expresses insight cosmically, suggestions on how to listen to the sutras, to why birds have to be magical apparitions in the pure land.

with Ratnaguna
Dharmagiri 15–18 April 2010

Under denna långhelg ledde Ratnaguna oss i reflektion och kontemplation på verser från Dhammapada. Han hade valt kapitel 1, 3 och 18: tvillingverserna, om sinnet och fläckar.
