Sign up for Jack's free email teachings

In this dharma talk from 1977, we explore working with wisdom, power, and knowledge on your spiritual path, and why it’s so important to walk the Middle Way.

There is endless knowledge to pursue and endless powers to be cultivated. We cover the Buddha’s four unknowables, which include things like karma and the range of the mind of a Buddha. If you look in the spiritual traditions in literature all around the world, the kind of things you can do with your mind when it becomes really concentrated and directed are fantastic and enormous.
