Description
Our FBA Dharmabyte today is titled and#8220;A Society Inspired by Bodhicittaand#8221; by Sangharakshita. We hear of Queen Vaydevi and the series of sixteen meditations as illustration to create a spiritual community without the use of the and#8216;power modeand#8217; in interacting with each other. This contrasts strongly with ordinary and#8216;groupsand#8217;, where relationships are often based on authority, sometimes the authority of a personal God. From the talk Authority and the Individual in the New Society, 1979.

Dying with Fearlessness: Today's Dharmabyte features the lovely Vajradharshini in an excerpt from her talk "The Transitoriness of Life and the Certainty of Death." In "Dying with Fearlessness" we are reminded that at the time of death only the Dharma is of benefit. - by Dharmabytes from free buddhist audio
