The Vimalakirti Sutra
Are you always chasing a better, freer, more awakened version of yourself? In this teaching on the Vimalakirti Sutra, Khenpo Sodargye explains why awakening is not something to grasp in the future.
Through Vimalakīrti's dialogue with Maitreya Bodhisattva, this episode reveals a profound Mahayana teaching: bodhi cannot be found in the past, the present, or the future — and true awakening is beyond attainment, identity, and conceptual seeking.
