Manifesting Buddhahood in This Lifetime with Dr. Kamilah Majied

Buddha-nature refers to the innate potential for every living being to attain enlightenment, and one of the most compelling aspects of Nichiren Buddhism is the teaching that this is already present in every being. The realization of this inherent truth is called “Buddhahood.” In this episode, Rima Vesely-Flad speaks with Dr. Kamilah Majied about using hardship as fuel for reaching the state of mind called Buddhahood.

Dr. Kamilah Majied is a longtime member of the Soka Gakkai International lineage, a mental health therapist, researcher, professor of social work, and a consultant for contemplative justice and sustainability. She is the author of Joyfully Just: Black Wisdom and Buddhist Insights for Liberated Living.
