The Role of Rituals and Prayer in Buddhism | Geshe Namdak

Geshe Namdak explores how, while the core objective in Buddhism centers on studying philosophy and psychology, rituals, pujas, and prayers also form an integral part of Buddhist practice. He looks at how the primary goal of rituals and prayers is the transformation of the mind, and that understanding the symbolic meaning of implements used in rituals, such as the vajra and bell, is crucial.

Thank you. So encouraging. Your teaching confirms to me that the small rituals I do are transforming my mind. The amount of time it takes is long, but no matter. To know that I am at the beginning of the path is enough.
