Ep. 179 – Relative and Ultimate Bodhicitta Part I
Manage episode 375667765 series 1355245
Joseph Goldstein discusses enlightenment through the lens of the aspirational mental quality of bodhicitta – the awakened heart.
This dharma talk from June 8, 2015, was recorded at the Insight Meditation Society and originally published on Dharma Seed
In this lecture, Joseph:
- Teaches us that there are two understandings of bodhicitta: relative bodhicitta, which is compassion, and ultimate bodhicitta, which is selflessness
- Highlights the spiritual importance of cultivating both compassion and selflessness
- Ruminates on the challenges of living in our conventional, ordinarily understood reality
- Reminds us that the ungovernability of life is the nexus between dukkha and freedom
- Describes the union of emptiness and clarity
- Recognizes the need for a gradual cultivation of awareness
“The mind’s nature is vivid as a flawless piece of crystal. Intrinsically empty, naturally radiant and ceaselessly responsive.”
