Bodhi Tree

Bodhi Day: Finding Your Bodhi Tree

Posted on December 6, 2020December 8, 2020

We revisit the story of how the Buddha conquered the demons of illusion by not succumbing to doubt and anxiety in the midst of threats and distractions, and look to his example for inspiration in our present moment.
