Joseph Goldstein discusses enlightenment through the lens of the aspirational mental quality of bodhicitta – the awakened heart.

This dharma talk from June 8, 2015, was recorded at the Insight Meditation Society and originally published on Dharma Seed

In this lecture, Joseph:

Teaches us that there are two understandings of bodhicitta: relative bodhicitta, which is compassion, and ultimate bodhicitta, which is selflessness
Highlights the spiritual importance of cultivating both compassion and selflessness
Ruminates on the challenges of living in our conventional, ordinarily understood reality
Reminds us that the ungovernability of life is the nexus between dukkha and freedom
Describes the union of emptiness and clarity
Recognizes the need for a gradual cultivation of awareness

“The mind’s nature is vivid as a flawless piece of crystal. Intrinsically empty, naturally radiant and ceaselessly responsive.”
