Meaning and History of the Four Great Vows

In this class we’ll talk about Zhiyi, the founder of Tiantai Buddhism, who composed the vows, their original meaning in Chinese (or Sino-Korean), their relationship to the Four Noble Truths, and the meaning of the bodhisattva vow for our practice and daily life.
Session One: June 9 / 19:00 EDT
