BODHIDHARMA | Bloodstream Sermon | Part 1 – Seeing Your True Nature

For more than 1,500 years, this teaching has unsettled seekers of Enlightenment. 🎬In this video, we explore the teaching of BODHIDHARMA, the first Zen Patriarch, through the opening of the Bloodstream Sermon. According to BODHIDHARMA, AWAKENING and Enlightenment are not something to be attained through effort, morality, or spiritual practice. To search for awakening outside the mind is IMPOSSIBLE — because your own mind is the Buddha. This contemplative reflection invites you to stop seeking, see your true nature, and recognize what has never been absent. #Bodhidharma #Zen #Awakening
