Devotion as a Path to Divinisation and Buddhahood

S2 - Christ as Yidam

Eva Natanya · 90 minutes · recorded January 1, 2020

Eva Natanya takes the phrase from the Council of Chalcedon, without confusion and without division, and asks what it means to hold Christ as yidam as well as guru. She reads briefly from the chapter on obedience in The Ladder of Divine Ascent, setting John Climacus on examining a spiritual father and then not judging him beside the Lamrim instruction to list a teacher's good qualities and never begin a list of faults. The session closes with a guided meditation on the light at the heart.
