In this podcast, we will cover a Dharma Teaching titled “Thank you to Fathers and Ancestors”.
This teaching uses the opportunity of Father’s Day to teach gratitude to our father and our ancestors. It highlights the importance of our ancestors and the sharing of our merits with them. It describes some of the Buddhist ancestor ceremonies from different cultures, some of which are based on the Buddhist Sutta ‘Tirokudda Sutta: Hungry Shades outside the wall’. Those who cultivated their minds can gain insights into their own past life, the karmic conditioning and that of their ancestors. (Length 15:39) (Level: Beginner)
