The Buddhist Embrace

Tibetan Buddhism: The Elegant Mind

Reflection upon a foundational Diamond Sutra verse yields a clear and relevant message to those on the Mahayana path: 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) comfortable mind boundaries, let your imagination soar . . .

Sentient beings come in all bodies, shapes, colors and sizes . . . and we are everywhere.
