Good squirrel, gets right to the kernel in a minute . . . Bravo.
@lobster, He has a way with words....I enjoy listening to his talks....
More Dharma kernels welcome . . .
Here is one on understanding. What a silver fox in his sari . . .
I luvs him too
The universal message comes over with myriads of teachers I have read or heard, and there are plenty in the world it seems - they just start popping up all over the place - a form of happiness comes with first understanding intellectually through study that we are not really separate ego's, and everything is interdependent, although it appears impossible not to stop clinging onto that idea. Genuine happiness and bliss comes from feeling and knowing it is true, and then developing faith in dharma until you can really let go... Then the world becomes your oyster, carrot and apple tart!
(Myriad is far more often correctly used in the singular, as it already means ' a great number of'. Poetic license dictates it can be used in the plural, but usually only for literary effect as in Milton's 'A myriad of myriads', indicating an incredible, uncountable total, such as the stars in the entire universe....)
Ok, carry on.
"Dharma...A path to Bliss" That sounds about right....
I agree, @Shoshin.
He's an excellent teacher.
I like his books very much.
Now there's a sentence you don't hear every day!
