The Heart Sutra Part 12 - The Infinite Possibilities of the 4 Noble Truths.

“There is no suffering, no cause of suffering, no cessation of suffering and no path.”The Heart Sutra “Suffering can be experienced as possibilities, change, or even new beginnings. “Guo Gu The Heart Sutra, a key text in the Prajnaparamita genre, offers profound teachings on the nature of things. Guo Gu has often emphasized throughout his series of talks that the Heart Sutra critiques the early Buddhist materialistic understanding of the world, where words and language solidify phenomena. In this evening’s discussion, he delves deeply into this critique, ultimately illustrating how suffering transforms into liberation and how the causes of suffering can become the path to liberation. This video is a continuation of a series of commentaries by Guo Gu on "The Heart Sutra", one of the shortest Mahayana scriptures that expound the core message of Buddhism. The Heart Sutra is also one of the most important scriptures in the Chan/Zen tradition. The series will continue every first Monday of each month throughout 2024. Each talk will be independent, but we encourage you and your friends to attend all sessions. During these Monday sits, we will begin with a short period of meditation followed by the Dharma talk. There will be opportunity to ask questions and to socialize a bit after the talk. More information can be found at: https://tallahasseechan.org/heart-sutra
