What does it mean “to practice the Dharma?” It’s not about chanting mantras or doing visualizations for their own sake. It’s about transforming our minds. This is the essence of Dharma practice laid out in the teachings on the Five Forces.
Coming from Kadampa Geshe Chekawa’s Seven-Point Mind Training, the Five Forces describe how to integrate the Buddha’s teachings into daily life, especially to transform adversity into the path to awakening. They also teach us how to age gracefully and to prepare for death and our next rebirth.
