The doctrine of dependent origin. To reach Nivarna. Is neither cessation nor origination, neither annihilation nor the eternal, neither singularity nor plurality, neither the coming nor the going of any dharma, to true nirvāṇa. The auspicious cessation of hypostatization. The heart mantra of goddess of mercy explained. Namo Bei Za Nagarjuna Bodhisattva Svaha. Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. 🙏🙏🙏
@@JohnGrove310 that really depends on how you see life. Everything in my life that you might call suffering, is received as blessings. I have no suffering. I only have half a digestive track. I know it’s made me who I am today and I am grateful. It’s all subjective.
The Middle Path is the truth. Neither over indulgence, nor austerities. Either you devote yourself to the Middle Way, the way between extremes, or you will go through Dukkha again. Dhammapada says that if you have ‘hell’ in this life, you have ‘hell’ in the next. This is the teaching of the Buddhas.
In my contemplations, I believe that the middle way can not only refer to human vices and virtues taken to extremities, but can also refer to: Present, Here, Now, I Am, This, Awareness, Is-ness. Do you think that is a possibility of what Buddha may have been trying to teach?
the Buddha experienced and learnt all forms of meditation at the time of all extremes and from those findings he tells us not to do them because they will achive nothing, they served him no purpose and only with his own time did he achieve enlightenment
