Episode 103 - Being an Upholder of The Dharma
Manage episode 293732500 series 2496605
In this episode we look at what it means to be an “Upholder of the Dharma” according to Buddha, and how we can, in a practical way, be one. In particular, we try to lessen the harm we do.
One does not uphold the Dharma
Only because one speaks a lot.
Having heard even a little,
If one perceives the Dharma with one’s own body
And is never negligent of the Dharma,
Then one is indeed an upholder of the Dharma. (Verse 259)
--Buddha, The Dhammapada
Doing no harm,
Practice what’s skillful,
Purify one’s mind:
This is the teaching of the buddhas.
--Buddha, The Dhammapada
