A Bodhisattva Has Only One Wish (Link #741)
from Mangala Shri Bhuti - The Link Hosted by Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche and students
Speaker: Nicholas Carter. Nick shares something Rinpoche told him on his 19th birthday: "Remember Nicholas, a bodhisattva has only one wish", but Rinpoche did not say what that wish was. Since then, Nick has come to learn that the path of the bodhisattva is a very personal path of discovery- discovery of the truth, in Sanskrit, "Dharma". We start with ourselves. We examine how we feel, how we behave, and we examine our motivations, which inevitably lead us to the truth of emptiness and dependent origination, the essence of the Buddha's teachings. Over time, and through the application of the three principles, we come to appreciate more fully the profundity of the four immeasurables in discovering for ourselves the path and wish of the bodhisattva.
