We continued our discussion of “Shifting the Mind” practice from the Supreme and Unsurpassable Mahamudra of Liberation part of Lesson 5 of C41(A)-The Three Principal Stages and Paths of Buddhist Practice. We will continue this week (December 9, 2023) with considering how to practice the “Dharma for Self-Other Exchange of Bodhi and Black Karma” and how to bear the sins of all beings. This will include the Dharma instruments needed and the visualization process. We will not be transmitting any of the mantras over ZOOM, but you can learn some of the mantras if you can come to the temple or through your Dharma Masters. You can follow this section of the course by reviewing questions #236-#257. Links to the previous lessons are listed below.
