Episode Synopsis

"What is lacking is virtue. Virtue is a force-of-nature a conduit for change. A force always to be reconciled with sooner-or-later. The only thing that has ever brought about real change in our world is the virtuous. The only thing that has caused war, poverty, injustice, and discrimination, are the non-virtuous." - Seijaku Roshi

The Buddha characterized "The Way" as "The Noble Life". to live Nobly involves living "Authentically", at the level of "Excellence", and as a Benefit for others.

The "Seven Heavenly Virtues" provide a context for living mindfully and, as a force for change in one's personal relationships and one's relationship with others including the Natural World. When embraced as a "way-of-living" they prove to be a powerful force for healing, renewal, and miracles.
