Causes and Conditions of Omniscience

In this inaugural episode to Season 02, Lama John gives some background on the classic Tibetan text by Kamalaśīla, “Stages of Meditation.” He describes The Great Debate between Kamalaśila and Moheyan that influenced the origins of Buddhism in Tibet, and then talks about some of the high-level concepts in the text, including the idea of omniscience. He ends with a reading of the Four Immeasurables from the text. “A healthy mind creates a healthy environment.”

Kamalaśīla (c. 740-795)
