2018-09-16: Don't Tame Your Elephant




MN Zen Meditation Center: Sunday Talks show

Summary: Talk given by Bussho Lahn. As the elephant was about to attack, the Buddha spoke to him, suffusing him with all the love at his command, and, stretching out his right hand, he stroked the animal's forehead. Thrilling with joy at the touch, Nalagiri sank on his knees before the Buddha, and the Buddha taught him the Dharma.
