MahaPariNirvana Part 53.

MahaPariNirvana Part 52. On the Parable of the Birds. Shakyamuni Buddha uses the parable of the Mandarin Duck and the duck’s inner insights in the personage of a Fanciful bird named the Kacalindikaka, to illustrate the difference between physical and conjured “realities”..

LOVE - Part 2. With these few terms we can define the Engine of Life, the experience of Buddhahood, and the Samsaric delusion that drives our physical desires. “Earthly desires” used to develop our Enlightenment, as Nichiren would encourage us, to discover the profound Love of Buddhist compassion 24/7.

MahaPariNirvana Part 47. Shakyamuni digs into the difference of potential and the expression of potential.

That potential already “exists” within the human being, but can only be expressed through the process of the practice...

CRITICISM. Attitude. Intent. Criticism is about actions; what actions are doing, what actions can be taken, what is the goal of our actions? We must use our Buddhist Bodhisattva training.
