Discovering the Radiant Mind
[ send me this paper ]
Personal response to reading The Radiant Mind collection edited by Jean Smith. The Radiant Mind is a practice in walking the path of Buddha. It is the search for knowledge like walking a path in search of teachers, except that the teachers are all located in one place, The Radiant Mind. Not only is the reader privy to the history of Buddha and Buddhism, but is also provided a means to begin practicing Vietnamese Buddhism, or “the Mindful way” (39), which can be translated to mental discipline. 1 work cited. jvRadntM.rtf
