The story of Siddhartha's life is about becoming Buddha, being Buddha.
It is a story on how to live a life of wisdom, generosity, love and compassion. It is about embodying a spiritual practice that integrates all aspects of your life and starts right where you are.
It is about traversing the Mahayana path, a path of great wealth and wisdom. It is a path that does not separate your day-to-day life and your spiritual practice. Your life is your spiritual practice, the result is the path.
It is a path that has been traveled by men and women of all trades-
artists, scientists, physicians, educators and entrepreneurs, the rich and the poor-
it is the path of the bodhisattvas, the mahasiddhas.
Its
lifeblood are the blessings that descend from an authentic,
uninterrupted practice lineage. These blessings take the form of realization and wisdom as they pass
from each generation to the next through continued guidance, clarification and support.
Siddhearta's story is about living a life of value and purpose, for yourself and for others.
It is your story.
You are Siddhearta.
Your path. Your practice.
Clarify your practice. Let your practice clarify you.
If you are looking for a community to deepen your practice with or simply want to learn more, please contact me. As someone who has traveled this path, I know that often times we walk the path by ourselves and that is the way we want it to be. But I also know there are times we want to connect, to share stories and struggles, to have companions and friends to reach out to with questions regarding the path ahead and maps about the world that opens up just beyond the next pass.
I look forward to hearing your stories, your struggles and walking the path with you. Thank you for reading this blog and I look forward to hearing from you.
