Gratitude: A New Year's Message for the Middle of 2013
About this episode
Dear Friends,
During the New Year's retreat, Brother Phap De gave a wonderful dharma talk on gratitude. Although it's the middle of the year, I thought it would be a good time to revisit the message. Brother Phap De delves deeply into gratitude to our parents. With Mother's Day having just passed and Father's Day coming up, I thought we might have our parents on our minds.
Enjoy this moment to stop and look deeply.
"When we're addicted to our own thinking, it is the cause of almost all of our suffering. And that experience kills the possibility of gratitude."
"A quote from the Buddha: I tell you, there are two people that are not easy to repay. Which two? Your mother and father."
