(We) Sentient Beings Are Everywhere . . .
from Tibetan Buddhism: The Elegant Mind Hosted by chenrezigproject
Reflection upon a foundational Diamond Sutra verse yields a clear and relevant message to those on the Mahayana path: Each and every sentient being is equally worthy of our attention, caring, cherishing, virtuous intentions and actions. This understanding -- from which the great mind of Equanimity, compassion's fertile ground, arises and abides -- is profoundly empowering. Feel free to allow your most inclusive visions to emerge and clarify, discover and embrace perspectives beyond your (no longer) comfortably confining mind boundaries, let your imagination soar . . . Sentient beings come in all bodies, shapes, colors and sizes . . . from unwanted insects to the beloved being(s) standing before us. (Length: 11 minutes) Written and shared here by Mark Winwood, a member of the Contemplative Psychology teaching faculty at Naropa University (Boulder CO), with music composed and performed by the renowned SF Bay-area musician Bobby Vega in collaboration with Chris Rossbach. contact: [email protected]
