On this day we honor the Buddha. He renounced his privileged birth to reconcile the great social divide he witnessed as he ventured out of his father’s opulent palace. His enlightenment engulfed those with and without abundant resource as he experienced the Great Beyond.
Since then, we all have the potential he attained with his buddha mind. We can all rise above I, me, and mine and beyond you, and yours into absorption in the infinite awareness of All that Is. Living from this awareness, we celebrate freedom and unification.
Have you ventured outside of your palace yet? Can you see how abundantly wealthy you are to be able to read these words? Ki to Happiness opens up to the blessings of those who have boldly paved the way for our enlightenment.
