Does a Horse have Buddha Nature?
Channel: SF Dharma Collective
Date: 2023-05-15

In tonight's teaching, MC discussed animals in Buddhism, including the Zen Koan asking whether the horse has Buddha Nature, a discussion of the ways different buddhist schools view animals and their meaning in the 7 realms, and other topics.

The theme for the Dharma Doors this winter is "Upaya Nights" - a series on the Buddhist teaching of skillful means and the pāramitās. 

Join MC Owens each Sunday night at 7 pm PT as he weaves humor and storytelling with modern scholarly research to open a new dharma door through a thought-provoking engagement with Buddhist texts and ideas.
