Depths of Chan Liturgy: The Four Great Vows Pt 3

I vow to deliver innumerable sentient beings.

I vow to cut off endless vexations.

I vow to master limitless approaches to dharma.

I vow to attain supreme Buddhahood.

"In order to become a Bodhisattva your vow is to interact with all kinds of people, and we all know how difficult it is to relate to people.”

-Guo Gu

In Part Three of his teachings on the Four Great Vows of the Bodhisattva Path, Guo Gu explores the second group of the Fifteen Minds—loving-kindness, compassion, great joy, and equanimity—grounding them in the teaching of emptiness. He clearly lays out the causes and conditions behind our present state of individual and collective exhaustion.

On the first and third Monday of each month, Guo Gu offers teachings on the practice of Chan Buddhism. In this session, he continues his series on the Chan Liturgy—exploring the chants, prayers, and offerings that are integral to our practice.
