Lotus Sutra Study Program Chapter 23 HD 1080p

What Chapter 23 offers us:
Dharma is medicine
Time is relative and short
Performing our daily practice is sharing the Dharma
Live the Eightfold Path and Six Paramitas to the best of our ability
Freely share your own unique gifts
We all make mistakes and struggle.
Keep trying
No judgments… No self-criticism.
Simply begin again… and again… and again…
Every moment is another opportunity to practice.
Have trust and confidence we will transform, heal and awaken.
Chapter 23 is also famous for its Twelve Similies for describing the Lotus Sutra's power:
This sutra is:
like a clear, cool pool that can satisfy all who thirst.
It is like a fire to those who are cold,
like robes to the naked,
like a leader to a caravan of merchants,
like a parent to children,
like a ferry to those desiring to cross,
like a doctor to the sick,
like a lamp to those in darkness,
like jewels to the poor,
like a king to the people,
like the open seas to traders, and
like a torch to dispel the darkness.
