Recorded on Saturday, October 28, 2023.

Roshi  Martin looks at the nature of ghosts in Buddhist tradition and how this relates to our own practice of being a genuine human being (and not a ghost). Includes three brief retellings of Jataka tales, illustrating the way of the Bodhisattva - a being choosing to go beyond unconscious, habitual clinging to concepts of self centeredness.

Tales included are: The Brave Little Parrot, The Banyan Deer, and King Sibi [Sivi].
