Happy Wesak! Wesak is the national Buddhist celebration of Shakyamuni Buddha's Birth, Enlightenment, and Death. Rev. Master Meian Elbert, Abbess of Shasta Abbey, gives some teaching about how as Buddhists it is important to consider all aspects of 'life' as this includes death. Some people might consider it strange that Buddhists would celebrate the death of an honored teacher, but as Rev. Master Meian reminds us, you can not have life without death. And through our practice we can find that place which 'does not die'; as an old zen master once said, "not death because not life".Twitter: @shastaabbeyYouTube: https://youtu.be/Yv3DovMWIn4
