Approaching the Buddhist Path 49 - Prayers and Rituals

In this session, spiritual director John Bruna unpacks teachings on prayers and rituals by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Venerable Thubten Chodron. John gives guidance that prayers alone won't lead us further on the path to awakening. He describes the interplay and importance of prayer with our virtuous actions and gives clarity on how prayers act as nurturing conditions for the seed of awakening to grow in our hearts and minds.
