Description
The idea of being on a path is a deeply positive one: instead of just trying to get through the day, the ups and downs of life become a pathway • it is also a challenging one: yes there are guidelines, pathways to walk along, but nothing will happen unless you actually do the walking • the fundamental Buddhist path is very straightforward, leading from struggle and suffering to ease and clarity; but there is no path until you actually step foot on it • in the Tibetan tradition, there are three vehicles to carry us along the path of dharma: the path of individual liberation, also referred to as the narrow path; the path of wisdom and compassion; and the path of indestructible wakefulness • these three are all aspects of one unifying path, which is simply the path of human life, the path of trying to awaken from confusion • it is very much an “up to you” approach, which is referred to as the non-theistic view.
