Listen to this amazing lecture on Buddha nature (and “Mara nature”) by Stephen Batchelor, in which he clarifies the meaning of Buddha nature which is often inaccurately interpreted from the original Pali texts.
Stephen Batchelor, a former Buddhist monk, studied under the guidance of Tibetan lamas and completed a three-year Zen training in Korea. He is the author of Alone With Others, The Faith to Doubt, The Awakening of the West, Buddhism Without Beliefs and Verses from the Center, and his new book Living with the Devil: A Meditation on Good and Evil.
