Listen "The Dragon, The Tiger and The Wish-fulfilling Jewel"
Episode Synopsis
Do we reflect on the Bodhicitta? Is it optional, a mystical goal we can take or leave? How does it become a motivating force in our lives? Sangharakshita has described the Bodhicitta as a myth or symbol that galvanises our energies, something that makes sense of our lives, something emotionally moving that stirs us on a deep level. How are we to connect with that myth? Vajratara takes us on a journey of a deepening engagement with the Bodhicitta, evoking the Bodhicitta through 3 myths. Talk given on an ordination retreat at Tiratanaloka Retreat Centre, July 2021. *** Follow our Dharmabytes podcast. Bite-size Dharma twice a week!
