And none shall conquer me.
Thus I, who will become a Conqueror (Buddha)
Will practice with self-confidence.”
– Shantideva
According to Buddha, we all have an extraordinary potential. We have Buddha nature, a natural capacity to fulfill our deepest wishes for lasting happiness, expansive love, liberating wisdom, as well as the ability and skill to bring real benefit to others and our world. To actualize this potential and accomplish these results, Buddha presented us with a clear and structured spiritual path that can be easily integrated with our modern lives, even in the hectic environment of New York City!
While traveling the spiritual path is a wonderful journey that takes us, as it is said, from ‘joy to joy’, it is also a profoundly challenging one. There is no question we will encounter many obstacles, in particular, internal challenges. We will come up against our entrenched beliefs in our shortcomings and inadequacies, and our limiting views of what we believe is actually possible. To continue practicing when faced with such obstacles requires confidence.
