Reflections for “Buddhism is Seriously Cool With Science”

by | Oct 17, 2023 | Buddhism.net Blog

The post titled Buddhism is Seriously Cool With Science is now up on Buddhism for All. Angela from the Buddhism.net team reflected on it, and invites you to do so too.

🌕 Angela’s Reflections:

The Buddhist principle of the teachings being “verifiable here and now” revolutionizes the conventional teacher-student power dynamic.  It places the power in the hands of you, the student. This unique approach to spiritual instruction gives us a profound sense of autonomy, and is also resonant in our modern age of self-discovery, personal mastery and deep inquiry. 

We invite you to adopt a mindset of investigating and verifying the teachings in the rest of this book for yourself.

🌱 Journal Reflection Prompts for You:

  • 📝 How does learning, living and experiencing spiritual teachings directly, align with your personal experiences or beliefs?

  • 📝 How might integrating a scientific spirit of direct investigation into your life be beneficial?
