The Qualities of the Dharma

Up to now, our discussion has been about bodhimind, the union of compassion and wisdom, the Two Truths, and the Four Noble Truths. Today we focus on basis of our religious practice, the Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. We already discussed the eight qualities of Buddha. Of the eight qualities of dharma, the three I will mention today are: (1) it is “inconceivable” (beyond thought and words); (2) it is free of “the two” (per Jamgon Lama Tsongkhapa, contaminated karma and delusion); and (3) it is free of conceptual awareness (the 16 mistaken understandings of the Four Noble Truths).
