Joseph Goldstein on Fulfillments of Understanding - Insight Hour - Ep. 171

Joseph Goldstein explores the five Iddhis, or fulfillments of understanding, spoken of by the Buddha, and offers four different paths which can lead one to the completion of the fulfillments. “The Buddha spoke of five Iddhis, or five fulfillments of understanding. The first of them is the Iddhi of special knowledge, which means the knowledge or the understanding of things which go beyond the conventional realm of concepts.” – Joseph Goldstein In this episode, Joseph examines the following: The term Iddhi, which is best translated as fulfillment of understanding The five Iddhis that the Buddha placed the most emphasis on: understanding all the constituent elements of what we call self; opening to the truth of suffering; abandoning the causes of suffering; realizing the end of suffering; developing a path to the end The four different paths which can lead one to the completion of the five Iddhis “These are the fulfillments that the Buddha talked about, the true miracle for us, the true development of understanding. In many of the texts, one of the ways in which somebody who got enlightened would celebrate the event, one of the common refrains, which has always been very inspiring to me, they would often say, ‘Done is what had to be done.’ Wouldn’t that be nice? Done is what had to be done. Finished. Come to completion. Come to fulfillment. We have actually done what needs to be done. What needs to be done is the realization or the development of these five Iddhis.” – Joseph Goldstein This dharma talk from November 26, 1988 was originally published on Dharma Seed. ================ Joseph Goldstein on Fulfillments of Understanding - Insight Hour - Ep. 171    • Joseph Goldstein on Fulfillments of Unders...   Joseph Goldstein – Insight Hour – Ep. 171 – Fulfillments of Understanding - https://beherenownetwork.com/joseph-g... ================ Make sure not to miss a single video podcast from Be Here Now Network!
