About this episode
In Western cultures, the word faith has been misused for centuries; it does not mean "belief," but "trust, conviction, based on knowledge from experience." That is why spiritual development depends completely on faith: spiritual experience. Learn about the levels of faith and how they relate to Triratna, the three jewels: the buddha, the dharma, and the sangha. Includes an explanation of Buddha Amitaba, the Greek Goddess Peitho, and more.
"We say that unsurpassed bodhi has faith as its cause. The causes of awakening are innumerable, but if stated as faith, this covers everything. O Śāriputra, the ultimate truth is really approachable only by faith." - Uttara-tantra-shastra / Ratnagotravibhāga by Buddha Maitreya
