This satsang video focuses on deepening practices through the profound awareness of the Mother of All Buddhas, Bhagavati, the great Goddess of Prajnaparamita, Supreme Transcendent Wisdom, beyond all names and forms. Through contemplation, mantra, chants and silent meditation this program, offered by Lawrence Edwards, PhD, leads to deeper understanding, and most importantly, deepening one's direct experience of what is beyond the mind and understanding, beyond divine forms, beyond all! This is your true home, your source, your nature as simply Being. Suffused with boundless love, wisdom, compassion and equanimity your true nature is free from suffering. Rest in that and live it into the world! Emaho!
The Bhagavati Maha Prajnaparamita Hrdaya Sutra, known as the Heart Sutra, is chanted and studied as a powerful means for overcoming the root ignorance, avidya, that creates suffering for ourselves and others. The Heart Sutra can be downloaded from: anamcara-ny.org/meditation. H.H. the Dalai Lama’s explication, The Essence of the Heart Sutra, is a great resource for deepening your understanding and practice of it. Bhagavati means the Great Goddess, she’s the mother of all Buddhas. The boundless qualities of our true nature, our Buddha nature - boundless love, boundless wisdom, boundless compassion, boundless equanimity and boundless ecstasy - will shine through your mind and body, thoughts and actions, as you become more and more immersed in your true nature through these practices.

How we create our lives moment by moment reflects our state of mind, our state of consciousness. Meditation is the key to changing our state of consciousness to reflect our highest nature, thereby empowering us to create a better life and a better world.
