43 - The Enemy of the Buddha - Mara
Manage episode 355245206 series 2890897
Before Siddhartha was enlightened and became the Buddha, he had to face the demon Mara and his army. While Mara doesn't get talked about all the time in Buddhism, he is all around us trying to make us create the unwholesome karma that keeps us trapped in rebirth/samsara. Mara is also an analogy for our obstacles in Buddhism and for the Three Fires/Poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance. When we "defeat" Mara, we also end the Three Fires/Poisons and realize Nirvana!
In this episode, learn more about Mara, his encounters with the Buddha, and what he means for our Buddhist practice.
