Via GBF: New Talk: The 16 Bodhisattva Precepts

Our latest talk is now available: The 16 Bodhisattva Precepts, with Larry Robinson. 

Instead of seeing ourselves as separate from the world we observe, can we imagine that it is the Buddha looking out through our eyes, wishing the best for everyone and everything?

In this talk, Larry Robinson explains that in the Mayahana traditions, we sit and practice not to attain or accomplish anything, but to express our Bodhicitta, our true nature, and to connect with the underlying reality of all things: unity.

He explores in further detail the practices that help us reinforce our understanding of unity: the 16 Bodhisattwa precepts. Rather than commandments, these are guidelines for experiencing the world through the eyes of the Buddha; a roadmap for remembering who we really are.
