FBA Podcast: Surrendering to a Greater Beauty

By Sadayasihi on Sat, 12 Dec, 2020 - 06:00

Starting with a story from the Rastrapalapariprccha-Sutra, Vajratara draws out the significance of Sangharakshita’s paper on the Fourth Laksana. This is the path of beauty, from contemplation of ugliness to the gateway of liberation called ‘the beautiful’. To be on the path of beauty, we don’t merely enjoy beauty, we have to surrender ourselves to that beauty.

Talk given at Tiratanaloka Retreat Centre, 2019.
