That empathy for all beings as we meet them is also a very essential part of any spiritual path, and certainly of Buddhism, that we cultivate this wish for the happiness and well-being of everyone, not just humans.
What does it mean to be a woman in the world of Buddhism? Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, one of the most respected Buddhist teachers, offers her profound insights on this very question. In this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment', Scott Snibbe sits down with Palmo to explore women's roles in Buddhism, both historically and in today's context. Known for her extraordinary commitment, including 12 years living in a Himalayan cave, Palmo brings a unique perspective to the conversation.
She shares her personal journey, the challenges faced by Buddhist nuns, and her vow to attain Enlightenment in the female form, no matter how many lifetimes it takes. Beyond her own story, Palmo delves into practical meditation techniques that can help cultivate inner awareness and empathy. She also touches on the role of ritual in Buddhism and how the pandemic has affected spiritual practices.
This episode isn't just for those deeply entrenched in Buddhist studies; it's for anyone curious about the intersection of gender and spirituality, offering valuable lessons on resilience, mindfulness, and compassion.
