When you think of the Buddha, you think of the young man
who was born in Kapilavastu, who practiced...
-
many years in the forest, and who went
around India to give the teachings.
-
But that is only a portion of the Buddha.
-
Because the moment when the Buddha
began to build the Sangha,
-
he began to transfer himself to the Sangha.
-
And many disciples, monastic like lay,
they continue the Buddha.
-
And you have to see the Buddha in the Sangha.
-
You have to be...
-
to be able to see the Buddha in the Dharma.
-
And if you have not seen the Dhamma and the Sangha,
you have not seen the Buddha.
-
And the Dhamma is available
in the here and the now.
-
The Sangha is also available
in the here and the now.
-
You do not have to go to India
in order to see the Buddha.
