Podcasts about buddha's birthday

Vesak is the celebration of the birth, Enlightenment, and death of the Buddha, celebrated by Buddhists on the full moon of May. On this auspicious day, Ajahn Sona offers a Dhamma reflection and answers questions from around the world. Opens with a Dhamma Talk; Q&A begins at 23:52.

In this Teisho, given on May 9, 2021, Rinzan Pechovnik Osho examines a case from The Hidden Lamp: Stories from 25 Centuries of Awakened Women "The Flower Hall on Buddha's Birthday." What is it to be born and to die? What is it to live a life of no-birth and no-death? All we have is this eternal moment. So how do we respond to its call to be cared for? We "decorate" the Buddha revealed in all things and at all times. 

Teisho in honor of Buddha's birthday given by Shinge Roshi to the Threefold Sangha.

This Dharma talk was given by the Reverends Jay Rinsen Weik and Karen Do'on Weik  at the Great Heartland Buddhist Temple of Toledo.  In this special talk given in honor of Buddha's birthday,  Rinsen Roshi and Do'on Osho talk about the importance of the historical Buddha, as well as the importance of encountering enlightened human beings in our own lives.   If you would like to learn more about the Buddhist Temple of Toledo, or to make a contribution in support of this podcast, please visit buddhisttempleoftoledo.org.

Dharma talk by Eran Junryu Vardi Roshi of Eiryu-ji Zen Center on 4/10/16

First, I would like to point everyone to our upcoming ZENATHON, for 10 days starting April 1st (March 31 in some places) through April 10th, marking the 10th Anniversary of Treeleaf Sangha. Sangha members and friends will be sitting somewhere in the world, in all time zones, to mark the event. We are also very fortunate to be able to celebrate together with the traditional day marking Buddha's Birthday in Japan, April 8th (details on that soon). In our Community, we have people sitting all over, in all times, dropping away all thought of "here and there". If you are available to sit with us, here is information on how you can note your times to sit (or if your schedule requires, you can also just pull up a Zafu when you can). ... And on to today's topic: As part of our focus on Treeleaf's Engaged and Charitable Projects Center, I have been looking at how the traditional Virtues (Paramitas) of a Bodhisattva aid and guide us in our volunteer, charitable and socially engaged activities in the world. This time, we look at how ethics and the Precepts are a vital foundation for our activities. Truly, they open the heart. An appreciation of the importance of life, of not taking what has not been given, of not using others, of honesty and like virtues all help us along. Further reading and discussion for this talk are available on the Treeleaf forum: SIT-A-LONG with JUNDO: Engaged Ethics (& Zenathon for Treeleaf's 10th Anniversary) »
