Welcome to another episode of A Buddhist Podcast. Tonight we continue with our new series of lectures on the Jigage portion of Gongyo by looking at the meaning of the words, Nyorai Juryo hon dai juroku! Haven't you ever wondered what it means? This poem of life is so amazing. Some of the headings include:
What does gongyo mean?
Lotus Sutra for the Latter Day of the Law
Wisdom illuminates ignorance
Nichiren Daishonin, the true Buddha
Causing the sun of hope to dawn
Shelley on Dante
A practice to perpetuate
Every character is a shining buddha
Living the poem of life
You can't use force to create change
Our victories are your victories
Walt Whitman, Song of Myself
Seek out your true self!
Live like the waterfall
Once again the music for tonights show is a blatant expression of how much we love the music of Cat Malojian! We play Pettigoe and Life Rolls On, which you can find on iTunes!
Thank you for all the comments, emails and messages of support, we truly appreciate every single last one of them. One last point, our love goes out to Dash and Donna, we are so happy to know that Donna is out of hospital and on the mend!
Have a wonderful week.
