Kodo Conlin - Lofty Goal, Everyday Practice: Dhammapala's Teachings on the Paramis
As relevant to our practice today as in the centuries following the Buddha's passing away, Acariya Dhammapala composed a Treatise on the Paramis to outline the path for those Theravadans aspiring to Buddhahood. With precision, he unpacks the 10 perfections, opening hundreds of doorways through which we can step into practice. For this talk, we will discuss some of the highlights and challenges of his work.
Bio - Kodo Conlin has practiced Buddhist meditation for nearly 20 years. He has trained in both the Zen and Theravada traditions, ordaining as a Soto Zen priest in 2015.
