The Ullambana Sutra
After everything failed — love, power, and tears — one method remained. This is Lesson 2 of 2 on the Ullambana Sutra. The resolution is here.
In this concluding teaching, Khenpo Sodargye reveals the precise method the Buddha gave Maudgalyayana — not just for his own mother, but for all beings across all generations. He explains what makes the Pravarana Day so extraordinary, what happens to parents across seven lifetimes when you make offerings, and the exact moment Maudgalyayana's mother was freed from eons of suffering in a single instant.
