Shakyamuni and the Birth of the Enlightened Mind

Today on Vesak, the celebration of the birth of the Buddha, Dharma teacher Fred Eppsteiner shares with us the life and birth of the Buddha and the significance of the Buddha’s Enlightened Mind; that which made the Buddha a Buddha. We celebrate today because the Buddha opened the path to Awakening. He pointed out directly that all of us have this Awakened Nature.
