Bodhisattva's Way Of Life - part 4: Using Our Intelligence
2008-08-28 Bodhisattva's Way Of Life - part 4: Using Our Intelligence 53:55
James Baraz
The chapter we'll be exploring is Awareness, what Pema Chodron calls Using Our Intelligence. It has also been translated as Carefulness. The theme is how we can use wise attention to prevent us from getting caught in afflictive emotions (kilesas or kleshas). Even when we know better we may still find ourselves going down a road of action we will later regret. This chapter is how as bodhisattvas we deepen our commitment to refrain from unskillful action.
