By Sadayasihi on Sat, 19 Jun, 2021 - 06:00

Bodhisattvas work tirelessly and heroically to create a Buddhafield for the benefit of all beings.

Dharmabyte: Self-Transformation Through Parenting

By Sadayasihi on Thu, 14 Jan, 2021 - 06:00

Excerpted from the talk entitled Staying at Home, Dancing with the Universe given at the Buddhafield Festival, 2006
