RE: The Ten Stages of the Mahayana Bodhisattva Path

in #mindfulness7 years ago

I think I'm a slow learner, or the journal is somehow hard to meditate or understand. Hahaha !!
Thanks to your stranslation, the way you explain it make it more easier to read. But I have resteem some of the post so I can read it anytime I feel like.
I have read the third stage where the ignorance of greed and mental control was purified.
Thanks for sharing @reddust

@ohakfarm for me the 6th stage has been the easiest to understand, it's full of things I struggle with in my daily life, an example:

In the first stage, the ignorance of clinging to person and things, and the ignorance of the defilement of wrong tendencies and actions have been purified.

Clinging means to hold onto something, a person, your body, money, possessions as something that we own that is tied to our identity. This clinging ties us up so we can't take correct action.

We all have conditioned behavior, blind reaction to sense data through our conditioning inhibits us from seeing what is really happening so we can react and behave correctly to help ourselves and others.

You break it down to my understanding. Just got the message now, thanks
