The Buddha was a human being who by his own efforts discovered the path towards Enlightenment and was able to communicate this path for others to follow. His life is full of stories that that are of relevance for those of us today who wish to follow the path towards Enlightenment. Manjurava  from a talk entitled Stories of Awakening: Parinirvana given at Cambridge Buddhist Centre, 2019, as part of Sub35s. This human life is precious an opportunity to awaken but this body is impermanent one day I shall die so this life I must know as a tiny splash of a raindrop a thing of beauty that disappears even as it comes into being. ~Tsongkapa   *** Subscribe to our Free Buddhist Audio podcast - a full Dharma talk every week!
