Exploring the Path of Virtue with Your Inner "Fugen..."
The Jusan Butsu program officially starts in a little over an hour this evening - at 7PM eastern, and there’s still a window to enroll. Either way...
Today, let’s focus on Samantabhadra, the Bodhisattva of Virtue and Action,
one of the "mindsets and activities" of Enlightened Living as seen on the esoteric mandala often associated with the Ninja (and many Samurai) warrior families.
Samantabhadra: The Principle of Virtue and Right Action
Known as Fugen ("foo-Gehn") in Japanese... Samantabhadra embodies the principles of virtue and right action, encouraging us to live with integrity and purpose. By focusing on developing this aspect and
potential within yourself, you can align your actions with your highest values and achieve meaningful progress. This principle brings numerous benefits, including:
Moral Integrity: Develop a strong sense of ethics and live in accordance with your strong moral and ethical values. (Not flip-flopping based on who you're talking to or hanging out with...)
Purposeful Action: Cultivate the discipline to take right action
and make a positive impact in your life and the lives of others. (Avoiding idle chatter, gossip, and other common but negative and detrimental habits that stir problems, waste energy and time, and drain us of the power we need to accomplish the things we say are important!)
Personal Fulfillment: Achieve a sense of fulfillment by living a life of virtue and purpose. (Applying right effort, right livelihood, etc. focused on
accomplishing our goals, rather than sitting around complaining, without a sense of purpose, further convincing ourselves and the Universe that indeed we are a victim of fate and outside sources conspiring against us!)
How? Great question.
This (and more) is the focus of the Jusan Butsu Program where, for 15 weeks, we will be exploring what our ancient masters used to unlock 13
potentials for power, accomplishment, and a sense of peace and oneness with Universal Truth. THIS is what is worth fighting and dying for... not Ego's temporary wants and "feelings."
There's still time!
Join the Jusan Butsu program to embrace these principles and transform your life through virtuous action.
