Gilbert Gutierrez has really good lectures on Chan. I wouldn't normally say anything, but I thought of it when you said to lookup Jack Haubner. I still wasn't going to say anything, but then remembered Gilbert said to share his stuff with friends in his latest upload on "Non-conceptual Wakefulness."
Gilbert Gutierrez's lineage is amazing. His master's master's master is Master Xu Yun. The famous "Empty Cloud" book is Master Xu Yun's autobiography -- Empty Cloud: The Autobiography of the Chinese Zen Master Xu Yun.
My favorite channel
Thank you.
Your dog always reminds me of the koan - you know the one. Anyways thank you for these videos man! Appreciate the effort.
I can't keep buying books, man. Lol
Does Buddha-nature help the barking dog fade into the background noise with the insects? I love the outdoor setting, btw.
I know, right?! I really enjoy the ambient noise--trash collectors, leaf blowers, Amazon delivery trucks reversing. Oh, and of course, Ziggy's editorializing along with the vlog.
Talk about dharmic reality. All a part of a perfect moment. This is it. Hah! 🤙
@@jonkomatsu8192 I couldn't quite place all that I was hearing in the background. Leaf blower, eh? Lol. I really think you're correct, too. Nice!
From my very limited understanding, it seems that Buddha Nature is the potential of all beings to reach Buddhahood. It's not really a "thing" since it's just potential, a capacity for enlightenment, so therefore it can't really be called a soul or self. Any thoughts on this I'd appreciate :D
Maybe it is just what it is in silence before any interpretation ?
I like that
Many translations to the Shobogenzo...what do you think of the Rev. Hubert Nearman (Shasta Abbey) version? I think I never heard you reading from it nor commenting about it...
He mentions it in don’t be a jerk and shows some of the translations. I think the general sentiment was that they made it sound bible-ish.
Yes, but does Ultraman have Buddha Nature?
Whoops, looks like he's giving his answer right there on your shirt. Oof! 🤙😏
Brad, have you considered adding your podcast to stitcher? A lot of androiders use it like myself.
I don't know what Stitcher is!
@@HardcoreZen its a podcast agregator like ITunes except for android. If you need some help with it let me know. Sensei Elliston can vouch for me to confirm I am on the up and up. I enjoy your content and am happy to help.
Fusho! (Unborn.) Potentiality! Does a cow have Buddha Nature? Moo.
There is a well-known pali word which means exactly "unborn" and by this Pali speaks about the future. The future dharmas are unborn dharmas.
Want to interview the Alliance for your podcast? 😊
You can write to me directly at bw@hardcorezen.info
@@HardcoreZen Sent! 😊
"anatta" doesn't mean "no soul" it means "not the soul". Its a form of apophatic theology. You realize the atman by knowing what it is not.
Very interesting statement
And what if anything you know is not atta?
@@wladddkn1517 you don't know it because you are it hence the apophaticism. In meditation you disassociate with the 5 aggregates and the only thing left is the pure light of the citta
"'Its a form of apophatic theology."
Yes, this is sometimes called the 'via negativa'.
An architecture of omissions.
@@Teller3448 yes, via negative is a great term
the fools chase meaning
meaning chases them
words upon words
what is empty
cannot be made full
Isn't the Buddhaness is nothing more than a potential of any beeing to be a buddha?
Not exactly. The point is that we are already Buddhas in a sense, but we still can realize it and live from that. Or, to put it another way, existence/consciousness itself is Buddha Nature and it's not something personal, not an individual, core, unchanging self as such.
The sense-context seems important, that is: the intention, to relate the way of individual/collective/total enlightened/awakened-being as Enlightened/Awakened-Being (Buddha) by using, resp. referring to, common religio-philosophical terms and concepts, like: standards of the "soul ladder" schema (classifying living, sensuous beings according to complexity, etc.), diverse versions of the "ancestor-cult", and so forth. Whereby biological metaphors (Buddha-nature, Buddha-womb, etc.) reign primal in this case.
@@ObakuZenCenter What is the difference between the Buddha we already are...and that which does not realize it?
The 'Buddha Nature' idea does not come from the founder of Buddhism, it comes from the Tathagatagarbha Sutras written hundreds of years later (circa 2nd century CE). If this idea is mistaken for an eternal 'self' that's because this is precisely what the Sutras say about it. In the Mahaparinirvana Sutra it states...
“Self” means a tathagata embryo. All sentient beings have Buddha-nature. This means the self. This meaning of the self has been covered up by immeasurable delusion since the beginning. That is why sentient beings cannot see it.
But now the thought is established of non-Self, he means to say what is true, which is about the inner content of nirvana itself. If there is no more any non-Self, what there exists must be the Self.
.. if the non-eternal is made away with in Nirvana, what there remains must be the Eternal; if there is no more any sorrow, what there remains must be Bliss; if there is no more any non-Self, what exists there must be the Self; if there is no longer anything that is impure, what there is must be the pure.
Except that that's not what any Sutras say. Nice try though. Both views of a solid, unchanging self and of there being no self at all are inaccurate, which the Buddha did say, often. The argument you put forward is what was made up by a group of about four people, calling themselves 'Dark Zen' about twenty years ago. One of the founders was a neo Nazi and the others were pretty loony too. They have zero credibility, particularly with their fabrications of a different so called Mahaparinirvana Sutra.
@@ObakuZenCenter You can download the PDF copy of the Mahaparinirvana Sutra yourself translated by Kosho Yamamoto (1973). Read chapter 12 called 'On the Nature of the Tathagata'. You will see that all the passages I quoted are accurate.
is seneca the stoic seneca? maybe he's dissing more of a worldly, practical interpretation of buddhism...
It's not the same Seneca. This one is Indian.
@El Narrador the spelling is S e n i k a, as far´s I know. Most probably, Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BCE--65 CE.) was not even a contemporary. And Seneca is a real historical figure, whereas with Senika, that´s not that sure.
Buddha Nature is the Tao
Prove me wrong
The Tao is beyond words.
You've read too many mediocre books on things like Tao. Prove me wrong.
shouldn't that be prove us wrong? For me more like the nature of the Tao.
