The Diamond Sutra:
The three month Buddhist teaching on the Diamond Sutra will begin January 14th, 2020
The 12 Week Course will be led by Lama Michael Gregory, and will offer 12 Video lectures, class notes and quizzes for each class. All classes are recorded and available on Vimeo for later viewing. Each class has a teaching, contemplation and meditation component.
"Subhuti, someone might fill innumerable worlds with the seven treasures and give all away in gifts of alms, but if any good man or any good woman awakens the thought of Enlightenment and takes even only four lines from this Discourse, reciting, using, receiving, retaining and spreading them abroad and explaining them for the benefit of others, it will be far more meritorious. Now in what manner may he explain them to others?
By detachment from appearances - abiding in Ultimate Reality.
- So I tell you-
Thus shall you think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;
A flash of lightening in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.
When the Buddha finished this Discourse the venerable Subhuti, together with the bhikshus, bhikshunis, lay-brothers and sisters, and the whole realms of Gods, Men and Titans, were filled with joy by His teaching, and, taking it sincerely to heart they went their separate ways."
Siddhārtha Gautama,
~ The Diamond Sutra
