Thoughts for the Week

When the teachings of the Lotus Sutra penetrate your heart and mind, then they will penetrate your daily life
Rather than approaching our practice with the focus of becoming a Buddha or Bodhisattva, the true Bodhisattva practice of thoughtful action becomes natural when we understand true appreciation of life. Think about Bodhisattvas as “people who have fulfilled the potential of their inherent natures and characters.” This is to value all of life and it is the heart of the Bodhisattva - to realize the true aspect of life and compassionately share the Dharma with others.
