The Third Bodhisattva Vow

About this episode

This talk explores the third Bodhisattva Vow: The dharmas are boundless; I vow to master them. To vow to master the dharmas is to undertake the commitment to studying the Way for our whole lives— understanding that despite the fact that we can never learn it all, it is our obligation to try. “I vow to be rent open, my heart laid bare. I vow to stand defenseless, yet awake in the face of reality. I vow to truly not know, that I may know ever more deeply. I vow to regard you, and when I can’t to regard you, and when I won’t, to regard you, and to let you regard me. Because I finally see that our lives depend on it.”
