Enlightenment Here and Now
Using verses from The Sutra on Mindful Breathing, Thay elaborates on the interconnectedness of the practices of The Four Foundations of Mindfulness and The Seven Factors of Enlightenment. Thay highlights that if we practice The Seven Factors of Enlightenment, enlightenment is something tangible, something concrete that we can get in touch with right here and right now. Thay draws on the teachings of the Avatamsaka Sutra and quantum physics concepts to deepen our understanding of the interbeing of all phenomena.
This is the tenth talk in a series of fourteen given during The Breath of the Buddha, twenty-one-day retreat in the year 2006. Thay offered this talk at the New Hamlet, Plum Village, France.
