Main topics discussed: - Why to practice the Buddhadharma, you need courage. - Some definitions of "Hero." - The aspects of the Hero that are present in the life of the Buddha. - Why the practice of the Buddhadharma is heroic by nature. - Human beings are not prepared to admit their mistakes. - Why these days, no one dares to become an extraordinary being. - Why the practice of Dharma will make you feel unpleasant. - The real goal of Buddhist meditation compared to popular mindfulness. - Why you might encounter energy imbalances when meditating. - The reason Dharma practice is similar to dying. - Dharma practice isn't just a peaceful practice. - Selfless action as a heroic and spiritual aspect. - Why the teaching of the Buddha inevitably leads to selfless action. - The difference between mundane people and noble people. - How Dharma practice makes you transcend the human condition. - Why Strength is a quality of a spiritual practitioner. - Is a Buddhist practitioner a warrior? - The reasons why the Buddha is considered a warrior. - What does it mean to be a worthy one?
