Dharma Offering

Towards an Integral Model of Buddhism
by Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi

This lecture was given to the board members and volunteers of Buddhist Global Relief during a Board Retreat. It is an early attempt by Ven. Bodhi to develop a model for understanding and practicing Buddhism suitable for the post-modern stage of mind’s evolution. A Domain Matika that illustrates the structure of realms and their interconnectness can be downloaded as a PDF. The lecture was given on April 10th, 2010, at Bodhi Monastery in Lafayette, NJ.
