This past week, Michael led our Sangha in an exploration of the ever-present idea of “self” and all the identifications and attachments that entails. In particular, he looked at traditional Buddhist concepts and how they have evolved in our modern world.
To make the Dharma up-to-date and relevant to our lives, we may set aside traditional Buddhist ideas that many would consider essential to authentic practice. We explored the roots and results of this move in our own particular cases.
You might want to think of beliefs, even traditional Buddhist beliefs, that you have set to the side, and why.
More notes coming soon.
