New Year Talk
This talk details the interconnectedness and impermanence of time, emphasizing mindfulness and compassion. It explores how the past shapes the future and the importance of nurturing loving-kindness (Maitri), compassion (Karuna), joy (Mudita), and equanimity (Upeksha). Surrounding ourselves with supportive communities influences our thoughts and actions, shaping a positive legacy. The essence of Buddha nature lies in understanding and compassion, transcending physical forms. Cultivating these qualities within ourselves and others transforms negativity into positivity, fostering joy and harmony. The future Buddha, Maitreya, embodies universal love and compassion, encouraging us to nurture these seeds within ourselves to bring relief and hope to the world. Through mindful breathing, walking, and meditation, we connect with the Buddha and Pure Land, embodying supreme understanding, love, and compassion.
