Title: Worshipping the Buddhas and praising the Tathāgatas – embarking on the Path to Enlightenment

“Worshipping the Buddhas” and “Praising the Tathāgatas” are the first two vows qua practice in the scheme of Bodhisattva Samantabhadra’s “ten vows for Good Practice”. This lecture expounds on the true significance of the practice of “śīla” as the necessary spiritual aspiration to progressively align with the holiness and perfection of a Buddha. This aspiration entails the inner human capacity of faith/conviction in and admiration for Perfect Enlightenment –– the sine qua non for spiritual progress. "
