\u201cGreat Compassion Penetrates into the Marrow of the Bones\u201d \u2013 A stirring and penetrating talk by Dhammadinna around the image that a Bodhisattva\u2019s compassion runs as deep as their very bones. Nagarjuna, Milarepa and others add their voices as Dhammadinna makes an emotionally resonant but clear-eyed attempt to lay out the ground of a practice that is moving towards the development of Bodhichitta. Why bother? she asks us, and shows how open-heartedness can respond realistically and well to suffering in our own lives and in the lives of others.

Talk given at the Western Buddhist Order Convention, 2009
