Our path begins by taking refuge in the Three Jewels, including the Noble Sangha, those great bodhisattvas and ordinary people like ourselves who show us that it's possible to live as fully open, tender human beings. When we're inspired to take the Bodhisattva Vow, these spiritual friends serve as protectors. They both encourage us to open and insult our ego-clinging habits. At the same time, we're reminded to 'be careful who you hang out with', keeping a careful watch on the tendency to slip into meaningless conversations and activities. In this talk we'll take a look at the role of 'kalyanamitra', spiritual relationship that extends not only from our teacher but also from our companions on the path of awakening.
