Tiratana & 12 Spoked Dhamma Wheel | Dhammagiri T-Shirts Second Batch | Ajahn Dhammasiha
Om avsnittet
To commence free distribution of our Dhammagiri Tees 2nd batch, Ajahn Dhammasiha goes through the meaning of every symbol and writing on the shirt:
1. Twelve spoked Dhammacakka (Dhamma Wheel)
2. Tiratana (Three Jewels)
- with Trident symbolizing Triple Gem
- Vajira (Diamond/Thunder Bolt) symbolizing the power of wisdom that can cut defilements in the mind, just like a diamond that is harder than any other stone, or like a flach of lighting that can destroy the darkness of delusion
- Lotus symbolizing the potential to rise above the dirt of the world to a state of total purity
- 8 Petals of the lotus symbolizing the Noble 8-Fold Path leading to that purity.
3. Tisaraṇa (Triple Refuge) - The Pali formula of going for refuge to the Triple Gem of Buddha, Dhamma & Sangha. This apparently simple declaration actually has profound implications. If we're truly taking refuge in Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha, than we're also endeavoring:
- To keep the 5 Precepts and establish ourselves in Virtue
- To practise generosity and kindness
- To develop the Divine Abodes of Loving Kindness, Compassion, Sympathetic Joy & Equanimity
- To cultivate calm, tranquility, peacefulness and concentration
- To develop mindfulness, awareness, wisdom, insight, knowledge, understanding.
