The Six Paramitas - Enthusiastic Perseverance
David Oromith · 31 minutes · recorded February 5, 2023
A fourfold vision quest puts four questions to us in turn: what would bring genuine flourishing, what we would want to receive from the world, how we would love to transform, and what we have to offer, and we breathe life into each answer as an aspiration. David talks about the fourth paramita, enthusiastic perseverance, and what sustains it: confidence built from experience, clarity about our intentions, taking delight in the progress already made, and the fortitude to keep going when the path gets difficult.
