Faith in Buddhism | August 13, 2014
It is a great turning point in our
spiritual lives when we go from an intellectual appreciation of a path
to the heartfelt confidence that says, ‘Yes, it is possible to awaken. I
can, too.’ A tremendous joy accompanies this confidence. When we place
our hearts upon the practice, the teachings come alive. That turning
point, which transforms an abstract concept of a spiritual path into our
own personal path, is faith.
